Built for How Your Industry Actually Works
ERM Implementation Engagements
Dimeri provides the structural platform for ERM implementation.
- Risk assessment templates built around COSO ERM, ISO 31000, or King IV are deployed at engagement start.
- Workshop mode allows the accounting firm to run facilitated risk identification sessions where AI assists with risk surfacing and scoring.
Control Review & Effectiveness Assessment
Internal control reviews for management letter recommendations and board governance support require structured documentation of controls, their design, and their operating effectiveness.
- Dimeri's controls module maps every preventive, detective, and corrective control to the risks it addresses and tracks testing with a full timestamped audit trail.
- Control effectiveness scores are calculated from testing outcomes.
Three Lines Assurance Mapping
Dimeri's Assurance module structures the three lines of defence for client engagements — first-line operational ownership, second-line risk and compliance oversight, and third-line assurance activities.
- The assurance coverage dashboard identifies where significant risks lack coverage across any line.
- Accounting firms present assurance gap analysis to the client's board as a governance finding — supported by Dimeri's structured coverage data, not an anecdotal assessment.
Client Board Risk Reporting
Dimeri's AI generates board-ready risk reports directly from live platform data — risk landscape summary, heat map, top risks, control effectiveness overview, treatment plan status, and assurance coverage — in one click, exportable to PDF, Word, or Excel.
- Accounting firms deliver polished client board reports without hours of manual formatting.
- Clients retain dashboard access between formal engagements, creating ongoing advisory value and strengthening retainer relationships.

Control & Incident Tracking
Three Lines of Defence — Tracked and Tested
Every risk in your register links to preventive, detective, and corrective controls. Effectiveness percentages update as evidence is logged. Full audit trail for regulators.
Reusable ERM Templates & Workshop Mode
Risk assessment templates built around COSO ERM, ISO 31000, or King IV deployed at engagement start. Workshop mode runs live facilitated sessions where AI assists with risk identification and scoring. Templates reused across client engagements — senior manager time directed to analysis and client relationship, not document rebuilding.
Control Effectiveness Testing & Coverage Dashboard
Every control mapped to the risks it addresses with effectiveness testing tracked via a full timestamped audit trail. Control coverage dashboard identifies where risks have adequate control and where gaps exist. Testing evidence structured for professional work product standards — no separate documentation exercise required.
Assurance Mapping & One-Click Board Reporting
Three lines assurance structure mapped in Dimeri's Assurance module with coverage dashboard identifying gaps across all lines. AI-generated board reports from live platform data in one click — risk landscape, heat map, control effectiveness, assurance coverage — exportable to PDF, Word, or Excel. Clients retain dashboard access between formal engagements.

Why Spreadsheets Fail in This Industry
Spreadsheets cannot handle the complexity, volume, and real-time demands of modern industrial risk management. Here is where they consistently break down — and what Dimeri does instead.
