Financial Systems Audit

Back to services

Effective financial controls and systems are essential to ensure your business success and to maximise profit.

You probably have good financial systems, but are they optimised and using the latest technology?

Turbo charge your business with our Financial Systems Audit.  We’ll guarantee your Return on Investment.

If, like many businesses, your finance operations have evolved over time without a strategic plan you’ll almost certainly benefit from our Financial Systems Audit.  It’s an independent deep dive assessment of your financial operations to look at exactly how things are done.

You probably have good systems that work, but not as effective as they should be. At worse, a weak system could lead to hidden costs, wasted time, employee stress, the risk of employee fraud and loss of profit.

Our Financial System Audit will look at:

  • Financial systems and controls
  • Bookkeeping processes
  • Administration, systems, procedures
  • Accounting and reporting – the quality of management information to enable business decisions
  • The effective use of technology
  • How effectively the business meets its legal compliance obligations to avoid penalties
  • Tax planning strategies

Who will benefit?

Business owners who are open minded and receptive to change in order to bring about a sustainable return on investment through:

  • An improved finance function with optimised systems and process flows
  • Better financial management and improved controls
  • Improved cash flow control
  • Better information that looks into the future to enable business and tax planning

Let's talk

What will you gain?

A Financial Systems Audit provides an independent deep dive review of your finance department.   It will provide you with a clear understanding of the ‘as is’ position and the opportunities to improve.

We will cover:

  • An understanding of your business and plans and how well aligned are the current processes
  • Clarification of the systems and processes currently used, highlighting weaknesses and areas for improvement
  • Opportunity for change to increase efficiency and the introduction of technology to automate manual processes where possible
  • A review of the accounting system and reporting it provides
  • A report highlighting our findings and proposed actions
  • A meeting to discuss how to implement the actions

    • The results

    The report will give you a clear understanding of the opportunities for change and show the key actions to prioritise.

    You’ll see what can be done to fine tune processes after the initial changes have been implemented. And you’ll have a clear structure which can be communicated to employees.

    Your Return on Investment

    Typically, you should see between two to four times ROI. When we first assess the scope of the Financial Systems Audit we’ll tell you the anticipated ROI.The actual ROI will depend on your commitment to implementing our recommendations.
