How it works

An audit should give you more than an opinion. Our registered auditors work to International Standards on Auditing with as little disruption as possible, and they tell you clearly what they find.

We confirm whether you need an audit or an independent review, then send a fixed proposal with the scope, timeline and fee in writing.

02

Planning & documents

You receive one clear request list. Upload records securely and we plan the work around your risks and reporting deadlines.

03

Fieldwork

We test balances, controls and transactions, and raise questions as we go so there are no last-minute surprises.

04

Report & insights

You receive the signed audit report plus a management letter with practical improvements to strengthen your controls.

What we will need from you

  • Company registration documents and SARS tax reference numbers
  • Bank statements for the relevant period
