- Internal
Controls
At
times you may need a trained outside professional to evaluate your company's
operations to determine if the appropriate controls are in place to ensure
proper handling of resources and to protect yourself from employee theft.
We
assess your internal control systems to determine the efficiency and
effectiveness of your operating procedures. Then we make recommendations
that help your company become stronger and more profitable by correcting any
inefficient or ineffective operating procedures we find.
What
we do for you...
-
Implement segregation of duties so that duties are divided, or
segregated, among different people to reduce risk of error or
inappropriate actions. No one person has control over all aspects of any
financial transaction.
-
Make sure transactions are authorized by a person delegated approval
authority when the transactions are consistent with policy and funds are
available.
-
Ensure records are routinely reviewed and reconciled, by someone other
than the preparer or transactor, to determine that transactions have
been properly processed.
-
Make certain that equipment, inventories, cash and other property are
secured physically, counted periodically, and compared with item
descriptions shown on control records.
-
Provide employees with appropriate training and guidance to ensure they
have the knowledge necessary to carry out their job duties, are provided
with an appropriate level of direction and supervision, and are aware of
the proper channels for reporting suspected improprieties.
-
Document policies and procedures and making them accessible to
employees. The documented policies and procedures provide day-to-day
guidance to your staff and continuation of duties in the event of
prolonged employee absences or turnover.
-
Review operations to ascertain whether results are consistent with
established objectives and goals and whether the operations are being
carried out as planned.
