Frequently Asked Questions

What is assurance consulting?
Assurance consulting helps your organization improve financial reporting, documentation, internal controls, and readiness for audits, reviews, compilations, lender requests, board reporting, or other stakeholder needs.
No, an audit is a formal assurance engagement that results in an independent opinion on financial statements. However, professional assurance consulting services are more of an advisory support designed to improve readiness, reporting quality, controls, and documentation.
Professional assurance consulting services are suitable for businesses, nonprofits, local governments, and organizations preparing for audits, reviews, financing, grant reporting, board oversight, or stakeholder reporting.
Can assurance consulting help us prepare for an audit?
Yes, our financial assurance consulting includes reviewing your finances, reporting processes, documentation, reconciliations, and internal controls before the audit begins. This helps you improve audit readiness.
We can help you organize and review financial information used for lender packages, board reporting, ownership reporting, grant requirements, and other stakeholder communications.
Your assurance readiness should be reviewed regularly, especially before audits, financing requests, board reporting deadlines, grant reporting, system changes, staff changes, or significant organizational growth.
