Modern quality management for audit firms.
Manage objectives, risks, responses, monitoring, findings, and remediation in one system. Structured workflows for ISQM 1 and SQMS 11 and QC 1000 — all supported today.
The quality management challenge
A system of quality management, not annual checklists.
SQMS 1 is effective now. PCAOB's QC 1000 becomes effective December 15, 2026. Tellen QM already supports all three standards — quality objectives, risks, responses, monitoring, and findings, connected in one systematic, risk-based system.
