that an individual will act ethically or less than ethical, and what this means to management,
the organization, and internal controls in general. It also examines the question, if the
auditors are doing all that they are suppose to do, in the manner that they are suppose to do
it, why does fraud still occurs?

A CLOSER L
An important fact of reengineering, downsizing, rightsizing, or other major
organizational change is that groups that are not perceived as providing value will be
reduced or eliminated. That may even include the audit or quality assurance group! In
order to survive, all groups must demonstrate added value to their customers. Value
Added Auditing is one method that ensures a higher level and perception of value to
the auditing customers, line management. This is what we do best!
Our audit process is a matrix of services, integrating technical expertise and practical
business advice into a powerful analytical tool. By developing the story behind your
numbers, we are able to understand your business drivers and assess their present
and future impact.
Conducted in compliance with the highest standards, we are able to deliver an audit
that is much more than a report card. Once we have completed the fieldwork, we will
arrange a “Closing Meeting” to provide advice and recommendations which may
improve your company’s efficiency and profitability.
