“Big data, machine intelligence, digital age are buzz words thrown around at many a daytime meeting or evening conversation In this book, Venkat Srinivasan brilliantly and succinctly challenges the organizations of tomorrow to be nimble, intelligent and efficient And lays out a roadmap for them to succeed A must read for CEOs, CXOs, consultants and academics who embrace change and are true leaders.” Dr Sanjiv Chopra MD, MACP Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School “Dr Srinivasan talks to us from a future that he has already seen and in many ways realized through practical applications he describes in his book This is a breakthrough treatise on Artificial Intelligence in the virtual or non-physical world of Business Processes, de-mystifying, deconstructing and making the cold logic and magic of AI accessible to all This is a must read for anyone curious about how work will get done in the future, so you can start making informed choices today.” Joy Dasgupta, SVP, RAGE Frameworks “For a business leader to constantly deliver superior business performance is daily fodder The challenge lies in driving change in organizational behaviour Dr Srinivasan shifts the paradigm; he provides solutions for what may hitherto have been impossible or prohibitive!” Sanjay Gupta is CEO, EnglishHelper, Inc and formerly SVP, American Express “This book is a must read for business and technology leaders focused on driving deep transformation of their businesses Venkat has brilliantly outlined practical applications of intelligent machines across the enterprise The best part, this eloquent narration is based on problems he has solved himself at RAGE Frameworks.” Vikram Mahidhar, SVP, RAGE Frameworks “An amazing book addressing the challenges faced by all businesses Having gone through these challenges myself in my professional career with several global organizations I can totally relate to the book Business needs are changing at a very fast pace and Dr Srinivasan has offered very practical solutions Process oriented solutions are flexible and allows business to adapt quickly to these fast changing requirements Intelligent automation has the ability to dramatically transform organizations and provide a competitive edge A must read for business leaders.” Vivek Sharma, CEO, Piramal Pharma Solutions “Technology is intended to make business more agile, more efficient But time and again, this same technology becomes a straitjacket once implemented, and forces the business to adapt, instead of the other way around The book provides a stepby-step deconstruction of what it takes to be agile, efficient and intelligent Based on this deconstruction, Venkat develops an alternate architecture that leads to the truly agile, efficient and intelligent enterprise This is not just theory and concept, but implemented and running at several leading global corporations today Ignore at your own peril!” Deepak Verma, Managing Director nv vogt and formerly, CEO, eCredit, Inc “Over the last 30 years I’ve helped a number of companies grow faster than their competitors in many industries But, in so many ways, the enterprise of today has changed: it’s global, its customers have many new expectations for service, it is facing new competition from new business models, and it has a new workforce with different skills and desires Wherever you sit in this new corporation, Srinivasan gives us a practical and provocative guide for rethinking our business process…using data and user controlled access as a speedy weapon rather than a cumbersome control and calling us all to action around rapid redevelopment of our old, hierarchical structures into flexible customer centric competitive force A must read for today’s business leader.” Mark Nunnelly, Executive Director, MassIT, Commonwealth of Massachusetts and Managing Director, Bain Capital “‘Efficiency’, ‘agile,’ and ‘analytics’ used to be the rage Venkat Srinivasan explains in this provocative book why organizations can no longer afford to stop there They need to move beyond – to be ‘intelligent.’ It isn’t just theory He’s done it.” Bharat Anand, Henry R Byers Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School “Venkat Srinivasan is one of those rare individuals who combines the intellectual horsepower of an academic, the foresight of a visionary, and the creativity of an entrepreneur In this book he offers a compelling vision of the next generation of organization—the intelligent enterprise—which will leverage not just big data but also unstructured text and artificial intelligence to optimize internal processes in real time Say good-bye to software systems that don’t talk to one another and cost a fortune to customize, and say hello to the solution that may become the new normal If the intelligent enterprise seems utopian, read the chapters on how some companies have actually applied this concept with impressive results Let Srinivasan give you a peep into the future This is a must-read book for CEOs and CTOs in all industries.” Ravi Ramamurti, D”Amore-McKim Distinguished Professor of International Business & Strategy, and Director, Center for Emerging Markets, Northeastern U “Dr Venkat Srinivasan has written a book aimed at business professionals and technologists This is not geek speak, not an academic treatise Venkat writes with great clarity and precision based on his real-life experience of delivering solutions through the RAGE AI platform It is about the brave new world that narrows the gap between technology and business Most of us have labored with technology projects that took too long, cost too much and delivered less than expected Process-oriented software and Artificial Intelligence can create solutions that are flexible, smart and efficient The book has practical advice from a thoughtful practitioner Intelligent automation will be a competitive strength in the future Will your company be ready?” Victor J Menezes, Retired Senior Vice Chairman, Citigroup THE INTELLIGENT ENTERPRISE IN THE ERA OF BIG DATA VENKAT SRINIVASAN Copyright © 2017 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc All rights

so that the IAM can test for compliance to standards Figure 7.4 illustrates in more detail the types of agents and automation that can be achieved within each area The solution can also automatically integrate with external systems that perform background checks We also expect to add an independence network to examine if a change in one executive’s or client situation would be consequential for other clients 7.3.2 Audit Planning Audit planning tasks consist of workflow and risk assessment Workflow tasks can be supported by functionality related to scheduling, calendaring, budgeting, and resource allocation There are several commercial products that provide this functionality However, risk assessment is an area of audit planning that the IAM can enhance significantly In this regard we differentiate risk assessment from detection of fraud The objective of the external audit does not, in the normal course, include the detection of fraud The IAM may discover fraud but that is typically an unintended result An automated journal entry agent would examine all journal entries and flag unusual or suspicious entries In the IAM, the audit team can implement analytical rules and logic using the extensive set of knowledge-based components in the RAGE platform, mainly rules, decision tree, model, and model network Such logic can be at the account item level or at the client or industry level Besides the ability to define rules and logic, an extensive set of fundamental metrics and risk assessment parameters can be automatically executed and assessed (Figure 7.5) In using RAGE AITM ’s natural language based extraction and normalization components, the IAM can extract and normalize fundamental data directly from source documents, such as corporate filings and annual reports Figure 7.5 Fundamental analysis WILL FINANCIAL AUDITORS BECOME EXTINCT? 181 Figure 7.6 Continuous risk signals For private sector companies, such data can be accessed from all the ledgers and sub-ledgers across divisions, subsidiaries, and normalized/consolidated as needed IAM can also assess entity risk continuously by integrating and analyzing external information such as news and social media posts Figure 7.6 illustrates such analysis of unstructured information from around the world and the interpretation of unstructured information from a solvency point of view This IAM automated sub-machine can generate a continuous signal so that risks can be incorporated at any time in the audit cycle IAM can be integrated with credit information sources in all countries These sources transmit alerts on the businesses they monitor on a daily basis IAM can dynamically produce audit checklists by account and also generate information requests for the client Depending on the client, the request can be either through the audit portal or through a printed document 7.3.3 Fieldwork Fieldwork consumes a huge amount of time in most audits The audit team spends considerable effort in substantives tests of assertions Fieldwork is also amenable to significant automation As illustrated in Figures 7.3 and 7.4, the IAM can include as many secondary machines as necessary for specific items, such as AR, AP, inventory, and intangibles Each of the sub-machines can handle the details of a specific account and feed the results to other submachines as needed 7.3.4 Existence Tests In financial accounts, the existence of assets and liabilities often involve third parties, such as debtors, creditors, banks, and custodians, and involve a 182 REAL WORLD CASE STUDIES confirmation of existence by the third party This is referred to as the “confirmations” process Most existence assertions can be automated through the IAM Typically, auditors verify a sample of the transactions in an account that leads to the closing balance of assets and liabilities From intelligently selecting the sample to generating the confirmation and processing the response from the third party, the IAM can automate the entire process In fact, the IAM can automatically process a lot more confirmations and not restrict itself to a sample as is done usually in the manual process Through its patented extraction component, the process of matching confirmed amounts and other attributes with the recorded amounts and attributes can be automated 7.3.5 Rights and Obligations Auditors also review contractual documents to understand the rights and obligations of the client as a contracting party to any contracts An important example is a software contract in the case of a software firm The audit team will be interested in understanding terms of the contract such as software licensing fees, implementation or setup fees, liabilities as indicated by acceptance language, and any extent of warranties All this is needed to determine the appropriateness of revenue recognition by the client The IAM solution is unique in its ability to automatically review contracts and reconcile the terms and conditions with other derived data and documents such as invoices and bills RAGE AITM ’s natural language understanding capabilities enable such automated analysis of contractual documents Its capabilities go far beyond mere identification and extraction of key terms and extend to a qualitative assessment of different clauses or semantic matching of attributes with external data 7.3.6 Substantive Analytical Procedures The IAM can further provide automated assistance in analytical procedures where audit teams examine ratios relative to past trends, other firms in the industry and/or industry as a whole Auditors can be alerted for unusual values 7.3.7 Closing Balance Tests The IAM can automatically create schedules and work papers at an account level identifying significant and unusual transactions in the process WILL FINANCIAL AUDITORS BECOME EXTINCT? 183 Figure 7.7 Audit standards actionable intelligence 7.3.8 Analyze and Issue Financials We envision the IAM automatically generating a draft of the financials and audit report with all relevant footnotes The IAM could also generate the management letter for internal control deficiencies The audit team would then edit these documents on the system and issue them electronically 7.3.9 Audit Standards In today’s largely manual world, audit standards are typically known to the auditors In IAM, the audit firm can codify standards and make them more actionable (Figure 7.7) For example, often standards are expressed in a series of questions the answers that help determine the treatment of a specific item Such standards can be codified into IAM whereby the IAM would not only identify/obtain the answers to such questions, but potentially arrive at a conclusion that is completely traceable Auditors could then trace the reasoning of the IAM to their satisfaction An example is the recent standard issued by the AICPA for revenue recognition in the case of Software as a Service (SaaS) contracts Such a process of codifying the firm’s implementation of standards would lift the burden on auditors’ having to scrutinize new and updated standards in order to operationalize them Once the standards are codified using a metadata structure in RAGE AITM , they are effectively institutionalized and can influence every audit that is affected by the new standards Such a process is also likely to be viewed very favorably by the regulatory bodies 7.3.10 Workflow/Configuration IAM can already intelligently control and manage workflow to optimize resource allocation on all sides through various stages of the audit process This functionality can address scheduling, calendaring, and resourcing type functions 184 REAL WORLD CASE STUDIES IAM is entirely configurable From adding and setting up clients to defining interpretation rules for different sectors, industries, and account types to rules for text generation, the audit firm can create highly reusable metadata for automating client audits in different industries New standards can be codified and mapped to the respective account set 7.4 SUMMARY There is consensus in academe and among practicing auditors that external and internal audits can benefit significantly with knowledge-based technologies In this chapter, we have delineated our conception of a comprehensive intelligent machine for external financial audits The intelligent audit machine that we have designed will dramatically change the way external audits are conducted The depth and breadth of a typical audit will expand improving the quality of audits Consistency will also improve across the board Audit firms and clients will see significant reduction in effort for an audit Audit firms will move to the Enterprise 4.0 state As discussed, the IAM can be extended to many other audit processes Besides use by internal auditors, regulators can configure IAMs for their purpose substantially easing the regulatory burden on the companies being regulated and, at the same time, improving the quality of their work REFERENCES Abdolmohammadi, M J (1999) A comprehensive taxonomy of audit task structure, professional rank and decision aids for behavioral research Behavioral
