Launched on 15 January 2016, the Maturity Assessment and the Performance Assessment complete the already enshrined Quality Certification offer.

Three major organizations, Groupe Caisse des Dépôts, Zodiac Aerospace and Poste Immo are testimony to this approach:

Given the highly diversified and dynamic scope of the activities of the Groupe Caisse des Dépôts, its Internal Audit activity has to be extremely adept in adjusting its systems to the level of risks to be covered. The Internal Audit Activity of the Caisse des Dépôts has clearly established itself as expert to the Executive Management and Supervisory Board. The Maturity and Performance Assessments have enabled the Caisse des Dépôts to obtain a rigorous assessment and contextualization of its internal audit function, as well as relevant benchmark input

One of the world’s top ten leaders in aerospace equipment and systems, Zodiac Aerospace, was confronted in 2015 with a significant drop in its operating profits, after revision of its internal control framework. The Maturity Assessment model notably allowed for a greater understanding of the expectations of the stakeholders and facilitated interaction with the latter.

Poste Immo manages the entirety of the real estate assets of La Poste group. Implementation of the Maturity and Performance Assessments has enabled it to go above and beyond what is mandatory, bolstering the internal Audit Activity and improving current practices.

IFACI Certification had the pleasure of awarding its 50th Certification to the Chief Audit Executive of Groupe Eurotunnel on Thursday, 22 November 2012, ceremony which took place at Palais Brongniart.

Extract from the speech made by Mr Benoît de JUVIGNY, General Secretary of the Autorité des Marchés Financiers, French stock market regulator:

“I would like to commend the IFACI certification, which is proving to be highly useful. It demonstrates the importance for companies of third party assessment.  It provides reasonable assurance that the Internal Audit Activity is indeed focused on the areas of strategic importance to the Organization.

Anything that helps successfully complete and improve the performance of the Internal Audit Activity can only be welcomed from a regulatory and control perspective”.
