Kemira TeamMate+ implementation

Kemira Oyj, a global leader in sustainable chemical solutions, is committed to enhancing its operations through efficient and effective internal audit processes. As part of their drive to ensure compliance, transparency, and alignment with industry best practices, Kemira embarked on a strategic initiative to optimise its audit management framework.

The decision to implement TeamMate+ marked a pivotal step in Kemira’s journey toward operational efficiency. Transitioning to TeamMate+ was a deliberate move to streamline audit processes, minimise redundancies, and centralise information in a single, integrated system. With enhanced workflow features and intuitive reporting tools for audit activities, TeamMate+ enabled Kemira to streamline internal processes and reduce unnecessary steps. This implementation ensured minimal disruption while empowering the organisation to achieve greater visibility, control, and alignment in its audit and risk management activities.

BR1GHT played a key role in helping Kemira implement TeamMate+, offering expert guidance, workshops, and tailored support. They supported us in adopting TeamMate+ features such as standardised working paper templates, control catalogues, structured documentation, and the built-in audit review workflow. This enhanced productivity, accuracy, collaboration, and decision-making, enabling us to make the most of TeamMate+ for stronger governance, compliance, and overall efficiency.

Improving Audit Consistency and Efficiency
With BR1GHT’s expertise and support, Kemira adopted key TeamMate+ features such as standardised working paper templates, control catalogues, structured documentation, and the built-in audit review workflow. These enhancements helped bring greater consistency to the audit process and made it easier to manage, reuse, and follow up on audit work across different projects. By centralising documentation and applying a common structure, the internal audit team improved collaboration, accuracy, and efficiency – without relying on fragmented tools or manual uploads to shared drives.

Empowering Teams with Centralised Audit Data and Insights
With BR1GHT’s assistance, Kemira transitioned to TeamMate+ as a central workspace for all audit-related documentation – including planning, working papers, and reporting and follow-up. While not directly integrated with other systems, the tool brought together audit materials in one place, improving visibility and accessibility for the entire team. This centralisation reduced reliance on shared drives or multiple storage locations, helping to streamline collaboration and support more informed decision-making. BR1GHT’s tailored configuration ensured the system was both user-friendly and aligned with our audit needs.

Note: The TeamMate+ implementation at Kemira is focused on planning, working paper management, and audit reporting. It does not include direct integration with SAP or other internal tools.
