3 Critical Problems eCASE Audit Solves for You
July 10, 2025
Explore how eCASE Audit solves key challenges found in audit management software built for the private sector. Streamline government audits and annual planning easily with eCASE Audit.
A lot of audit management software on the market is designed for the private sector. But for state, local, and education audits, the system can undermine efficiency and organization. It can even risk noncompliance.
Technology that’s actually built for government audits makes a huge difference.
1. Risk Assessments
Problem
State, local, and education risk assessments are so much different than Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) ones that commercial software doesn’t provide for the flexibility that you need. You end up with manual, inconsistent, or siloed methodology, as well as outdated criteria.
Solution
With eCASE Audit, each entity is scored and ranked as high, medium, or low using weighted risk factors. You can pre-save risk factors and automate the scoring while consolidating everything in one platform, making the process more efficient and consistent.
2. Reports and Recommendations
Problem
A lot of case management tools built for SOX audits aren’t configurable to an agency’s reporting needs. Many agencies don’t even have a way to confirm if recommendations are being implemented, leading to slowdowns, oversights, and errors.
Solution
eCASE Audit delivers GAO‑compliant, customizable reports alongside a powerful recommendation tracking module. You can import corrective actions, create, submit, and approve management decisions, track final action certification, and generate comprehensive recommendation reports — all without leaving the platform.
3. Audit Hours and CPE Credits
Problem
Tracking audit hours and CPE credits are often done manually or in a separate system. Having to log them outside the audit system creates extra work and risks compliance gaps.
Solution
TimeXpress within eCASE lets you schedule, track, and report audit hours and CPE credits together in one place, with automated reminders for timesheet completion and detailed reports you can export to Excel, Word, CSV, or HTML.
Automate Your Annual Audit Plan
With just a couple of clicks, you can streamline next year’s plan:
- Get notified if a fiscal-year plan already exists for your institution
- View and import the previous year’s risk assessment details
- Customize which criteria roll over and edit as needed
Your audit plan is now ready to review, without any rebuilding needed.
