Audit Preparation Process

Audit Readiness Review

We start by preparing an audit readiness review to understand our client’s accounting issues and the status of the books and records. We produce a detailed report of all that needs to be done and the time expectation for each task.

Task Assignments

We assign tasks among a client’s staff members as well as Audit Prep’s staff. Our share of the work is customized to each client’s preference — we can handle all the work, divide the work between our staff and the client’s, or just manage the process.

Timeline

Once we determine the task assignments, we prepare a timeline containing task deadlines and a completion goal date, making sure each staff member has the time and resources they need to complete their assignment.

Process Management

Now, Audit Prep is ready to manage the project and keep it on track as we meet deadlines and cost expectations. We communicate with the audit firm from beginning to end, reducing distractions and delivering the results you need.
