Consulting

Written technical advice is the best evidence that you can obtain on your audit file. It is reassuring that no matter the size of your practice, you too can also benefit from an independent technical department offering you best advice.

At times an auditor just wants to have a chat about an ethical or independence dilemma. At other instances, an auditor may wish to obtain a second opinion about a technical issue, just to double-check. Perhaps a phone call or a small meeting can do in these instances.

In other circumstances, the complexities of an event, may lead the auditor to request a more formal advise, supported and backed up by technical justifications. Hence a more formal report is presented outlining the facts, issues arising and recommendations on the way forward. Typical examples, when consultation takes place on difficult on contentious issues relates to :-
