Automotive & Manufacturing

Many plants, many entities, one view of control and performance.

Multinational industrial groups run long supply chains and dozens of legal entities across jurisdictions. Our team has delivered GRC and performance programmes for large European automotive suppliers and industrial groups, bringing supplier risk, internal controls and group reporting into a single, consistent picture.

The pressures

Complex groups, thin margins, close scrutiny

Production depends on a wide base of suppliers and third parties. A single disruption, financial failure or compliance lapse upstream can stop a line, so supplier risk has to be assessed continuously rather than once at onboarding.

Groups that have grown through acquisition operate many legal entities, often on different processes and systems. Showing that internal controls work the same way everywhere, with evidence, is a recurring challenge for finance and internal audit.

Management needs comparable figures from every plant and business unit, while compliance teams track obligations that differ from one jurisdiction to the next. Both depend on data that is consistent across the group.


What good looks like

Consistent across entities, clear at group level

  • Critical suppliers assessed on current data, with risks owned and followed up.
  • The same controls, tested the same way, in every legal entity.
  • Compliance obligations recorded by jurisdiction and linked to the controls that meet them.
  • Group performance reported from one set of figures that plants and head office both trust.

Next step

Start with your control framework

A single view of the controls that matter across your entities is often the most useful first step. Our team can help you build it, from Barcelona and Abu Dhabi.
