TeamMate+

TeamMate+, developed by the massive publishing and professional services firm Wolters Kluwer, is arguably the most widely deployed internal audit software on the planet. For over twenty years, the original "TeamMate" desktop software was the absolute gold standard for managing auditor working papers. TeamMate+ is their entirely modernized, web-based successor. Because it has been in the market for decades, it is incredibly robust regarding complex, multi-national organizational hierarchies. If an auditor is working for a global conglomerate that owns 40 different brands across 60 countries, TeamMate+ allows the Chief Audit Executive to build a highly complex taxonomy, ensuring that an audit in the "German Automotive Division" rolls up perfectly into the global consolidated risk report. It is heavily favored by highly traditional, rigid audit shops because it enforces extreme methodological discipline. It ensures that every single audit finding is properly cross-referenced to a specific test step, which is linked to a specific control, which is linked to a specific risk. This guarantees that when external regulators (like the SEC or the Federal Reserve) review the internal audit department's work, the documentation is absolutely bulletproof.
