Here’s how we work with you...

A typical project could entail working with an organisation’s external auditors to provide an efficient, risk responsive audit approach.  Our work has added value through the advice upon, and the drafting of, risk management policies and procedures and through the presentation of risk management courses for all levels of staff in the organisation.  These risk management workshops have helped our client embed risk management across their organisation and assist their senior line management in their day to day duties.

Without diluting our findings, we have worked closely with and alongside management to positively develop the organisation in line with the objectives set out in its corporate/business plan.  As part of the process, we have recommended practical control improvement solutions covering IT Systems and other policies and procedures. 

Our reviews have covered:

  • Health and Safety
  • Human Resources
  • Procurement
  • Operation of controls in several remove locations
  • Risk Management
  • Corporate Governance and
  • The financial controls environment.

Fundamentally, our remit has not been solely focused in this latter area but has pushed into areas of the organisation not “audited” – in the traditional sense – before.  In this way, we have evaluated, challenged and reported on those elements of the Internal Control Systems for which management and the audit committee are responsible and ensured that the organisation is on course to achieving its objectives.
