Client: Standard Auditing
Repositioning a Legacy Audit Firm for Growth
Standard Auditing partnered with Triway to transform from a legacy audit firm with limited market visibility into a modern, growth-oriented business. Through comprehensive business transformation including client portfolio rationalization, digital-first positioning, CRM implementation, and next-generation leadership enablement, the firm achieved improved governance, stronger market credibility, and a sustainable foundation for regional scale.
Client Background
Standard Auditing is a well-established auditing and advisory firm with over 25 years of domain expertise. The firm delivers audits in accordance with IFRS standards, is registered with DMCC and multiple UAE Free Zones, and supports clients across company formation, compliance, and business consultancy. Over the years, Standard Auditing has helped numerous businesses grow—often from modest beginnings to significant success—through ethical practices, strong technical knowledge, and principled advisory. Despite this depth of capability and impact, the firm remained largely under the radar, receiving limited market visibility and recognition compared to peers with far less experience.
Business Challenges
Standard Auditing faced critical operational challenges that required strategic intervention
Non-yielding clients: Significant time and effort were being spent on low-value clients, with minimal returns—diluting focus and team energy
Absence of pricing discipline: Lack of a minimum billing threshold undervalued expertise and weakened service perception
Limited digital presence: The firm's capabilities were not reflected adequately online, affecting discoverability and credibility
Manual client and lead management: No structured system existed to track leads, follow-ups, or client journeys
Technology credibility gap: Legacy systems did not align with the expectations of modern, growth-oriented businesses
Talent and leadership pipeline gaps: While experience was strong, succession planning and next-generation leadership needed strengthening
