Controls Gap Analysis

"A well controlled company is a more profitable company" - Jack Welch.

 

Internal Controls are the foundation of a bedrock of the financial reporting standards as per the SEC.

 

Lack of adequate Internal Controls add to the risk profile of an organization and is a major factor that keeps Executive Management awake at night. ACURUS Business Consulting realizes the importance of Internal Controls. We strive to bridge the gap between Internal Control expectations and how they are actually implemented. 

​

In our experience, there is always a potential for significant gaps. This is attributable to the continuous evolvement/improvement of business models. Shared service centers, smarter Key Performance Indicators, and adoption of scalable enterprise software systems are all examples of changes that lead to obsolescence of Internal Controls. They also necessitate sharpening of Internal Control focus.

 

This is where we help clients by identifying and bridging the Internal Controls gap expectation. Where a gap has been addressed by management, we assist clients by completing an Internal Audit over key business processes and provide reassurance over the effectiveness, efficiency and continuity of Key Internal Controls.

​

Consider, are the controls at your organization designed to harness efficiency and sustained profitability? In the world of data proliferation, how do you know that your controls provide effective governance to ensure completeness and accuracy of the data your team is using to generate financial statements?
