Wiktor Galusiński Certified as Internal Control System Auditor for the Defence Sector

We are pleased to announce that Wiktor Galusiński has obtained a certificate of completion of the Internal Control System Auditor training conducted by the Polish Centre for Testing and Certification.

The certificate confirms that Wiktor successfully passed the final examination and completed specialist training focused on the Internal Control System, known in Poland as WSK. This area is particularly important for businesses involved in the trade of strategic goods, technologies and services.

Why is the Internal Control System important for defence and military businesses?

The Internal Control System is a key compliance element for companies operating in areas such as military and defence goods, dual-use products, strategic technologies, export control and international trade in regulated items. A properly designed and audited system helps companies manage legal, organisational and sanctions-related risks connected with export, import, brokering, transit and technology transfers.

The training programme covered, among other things:

• the role and structure of the Internal Control System,
• differences between military goods and dual-use products,
• legal regulations governing international trade in strategic goods,
• rules for using export and trade permits,
• record-keeping obligations,
• criminal liability and sanctions,
• planning and conducting internal audits,
• audit risks, case studies and corrective actions.

Strengthening our support for defence, military and dual-use companies

Wiktor’s certification further strengthens the capabilities of Dudkowiak & Putyra Business Lawyers in advising companies from the defence, military, dual-use and strategic goods sectors.

This is particularly relevant for projects involving:

• assessment of regulatory obligations related to strategic goods,
• preparation and review of internal compliance procedures,
• verification of Internal Control System requirements,
• support in permit and licensing procedures,
• identification of risks related to export, import and technology transfers,
• preparation for audits or regulatory inspections,
• legal support for transactions involving components, technologies or services with potential strategic significance.

Companies active in the defence and advanced technology sectors increasingly need to combine legal, regulatory and operational compliance. This applies not only to manufacturers and exporters, but also to businesses developing drone technologies, dual-use solutions, communication systems, software, electronics and components used in military and defence supply chains.
