External audit support

Many businesses utilise sophisticated information technology (IT) systems to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of operations. These IT systems create additional complexities with the performance of the annual external audit. Our Business risk services team has the IT skills and expertise to support your external audit process.

We understand the common IT risks associated with various IT environments. We work with you and the audit team to understand your use of IT assets for accounting processes and help diagram information and process flow charts to highlight risk areas and identify controls.

Specifically we can provide the following types of services:

• General controls reviews
• Data analysis (accounts receivable aging, control totals, etc.)
• Segregation of duties analysis
• User access reviews
