SOX Compliance Consulting
Flexible and Cost-Effective SolutionsSOX COMPLIANCE EXPERIENCE
Our SOX compliance (Sarbanes-Oxley Act 404) consultants have dedicated thousands of hours to the implementation of SOX compliance methodologies at numerous multi-national companies, under scrutiny of each of the “Big Four” accounting firms. Our methodologies are designed around the COSO internal control framework, the IT Governance Institute’s CobiT and industry best practices. We apply a top-down, risk-based approach identifying effective ways to appropriately reduce effort and compliance cost through better risk assessment, scoping and use of technology.
We tailor our services to meet each client’s unique SOX compliance needs. Whether our arrangement is full outsourcing, co-sourcing or consulting, our team will work closely with the process owners, management and external auditors to ensure all compliance initiatives are met on schedule, on budget and in the highest quality.
SOX COMPLIANCE SERVICES
Our SOX Compliance, J-SOX and C-SOX consulting services include:
- Project planning and management
- Risk assessment, scoping and materiality
- Documentation, testing and remediation of risks and controls
- Communication with external auditors, executive management and the audit committee
- Cost reduction by evaluating risks, optimizing controls, implementing risk-based testing and streamlining the overall compliance effort
We view SOX compliance as an opportunity to continuously improve business processes and performance rather than a mere exercise in compliance. Our consultants will help your organization achieve compliance in the most efficient and cost effective manner.
SOX READINESS REVIEW
A SOX Readiness Review is designed to assess an organization’s preparedness for SOX compliance, J-SOX compliance or C-SOX compliance. By conducting a thorough gap analysis, our consultants will assess the current control environment by identifying strengths and providing recommendations for areas that need improvement. As part of our detailed recommendations, we will provide a prioritized listing of controls that should be considered for implementation or enhancement prior to the audit. In addition, we will provide SOX-specific process documentation examples (flowcharts and Risk Control Matrices), test script templates, an inventory of baseline policies and procedures required and key forms. A SOX Readiness Review is a valuable, cost effective assessment that will give you a good idea of where you currently are and where you need to be.
