SAP controls auditing sits at the intersection of three disciplines almost no other consulting role combines. No training programme has ever addressed all three β€” until now.

What does a real 30-day SAP controls engagement actually look like, day by day?

What does a High finding look like β€” specifically, in SM59, GRC ARA, or FAGLL03?

How do you produce a workpaper that passes a Big 4 QA review on the first submission?

What do you do when a client challenges your finding rating face-to-face?

How do you write a management letter section that the Audit Lead does not have to rewrite?

TIB Systems built this programme to answer all five β€” completely, practically, and with materials that no other training provider in this market has assembled.

Eight Things
No One Else Does

Every differentiator is implemented and verifiable β€” not a marketing claim
01
The Complete Consultant Framework
We train SAP controls auditors β€” not SAP operators. Every procedure taught risk-first: the fraud scenario before the test step. Scenario β†’ Procedure β†’ Technique.
02
140 Procedures Β· 14 Domains
One integrated checklist covering Access Control, ITGC, GRC, RFC, Infrastructure, Fiori, BTP, Cloud, Non-SAP, Identity Governance, Privacy, SOX, Methodology, Readiness.
03
700+ Model Findings β€” CCCE Format
For every procedure: exactly what a High, Medium, and Low finding looks like. Condition, Criteria, Cause, Effect, Resolution β€” in Big 4 format, all 14 domains.
04
30-Day Engagement Simulation
The Ironbridge Capital Group plc simulation β€” a complete 30-day engagement at a Β£28bn London asset manager. Four client character types. Pre-planted findings. Before Day One.
05
50-Scenario Calibration Bank
Before rating a finding on a live engagement, you have rated 50 calibrated scenarios β€” over-rated findings, non-findings, and Significant Deficiency aggregations.
06
Weekly Live Coaching Sessions
60-minute weekly Zoom: 20-min scenario warm-up, 30-min live SAP walkthrough, 10-min Q&A. 60–85% completion rate vs 3–15% for self-paced programmes.
07
Peer Review β€” CCCE Rubric
End of each domain: submit a CCCE finding for peer review against a 6-criterion Big 4 rubric. 12/18 minimum before instructor sees it. 28 formal reviews per graduate.
08
Competency Passport
Not a participation certificate. A documented record of procedures executed, findings identified, simulation performance, and peer review scores β€” verifiable by clients.

How TIB Compares

* Big 4 internal training is the closest standard β€” not commercially available. TIB replicates it externally.

Ironbridge Capital Group plc β€”
Before Your First Real Client

"The first time a trainee encounters a repeat finding escalation, a defensive BASIS Team Lead, or a client who tries to go around them to the Audit Lead should not be in a live engagement."

Client
London asset manager, Β£28bn AUM, S/4HANA 2021
Pre-Planted
15 findings across 11 domains β€” 7 High, 6 Medium, 2 Low
Prior Year
Two unresolved High findings β€” both repeat escalations
Characters
4 client types including an aggressive IT Director

What the Simulation Confirms About Every TIB Graduate

  • They have held a High finding rating under direct challenge from an aggressive IT Director
  • They have escalated a repeat High finding correctly β€” immediately, not in the daily sync
  • They have produced a management letter through a full QA review and client response cycle
  • They have experienced the exact pressure points that cause consultants to make career-damaging mistakes β€” before those mistakes can cost a client or a firm

Not a Participation Certificate

TIB-CERT-SCC

Senior Controls Consultant

Awarded after SCC Phases 1–6, workpaper QA review, written assessment, Pre-Engagement Readiness Check, and Ironbridge simulation minimum standard. The holder can execute independently on a live engagement from Day One.

TIB-CERT-CL

Controls Lead

Awarded after CL Phases 1–6, all 17 Ironbridge deliverables submitted, written assessment at 80% minimum, and full QA review. The holder can lead a complete 30-day engagement independently β€” scope, direct, produce the management letter, close with the client.

Competency Passport

Issued Alongside Certification

A documented record every client can request: specific procedures executed, findings identified, simulation performance, peer review scores. Provides a level of verifiable evidence a certificate alone cannot match. When we say Big 4-calibrated, we mean one specific thing: a Big 4 QA reviewer cannot tell the workpaper was produced by someone not trained internally at that firm.
