Process and Control Reviews
Internal audit teams are often understaffed or require additional independence or expertise to complete audit engagements. Executive and Senior Management periodically require assistance in reviewing and assessing business processes, internal controls, new process implementations or compliance with internal policies and procedures. PowellDorian's internal audit professionals are often called upon to assist organizations in supplementing their internal audit team or assist senior management to review processes, such as:
- Travel and reimbursable expenditure audits
- Contracts and contract management reviews
- Contribution and funding agreement audits
- Point of sale implementation reviews
- Cash management reviews, etc.
NI 52-109 / SOX Certification
Canadian National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings (NI 52-109), and the US Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), require the CEO and CFO of publicly traded companies to personally certify the design and operating effectiveness of their company’s disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting. PowellDorian has assisted publicly traded companies with all aspects of documenting and testing disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting.
Internal Audit Quality Assessment
The Institute of Internal Auditors’ International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing state that the chief audit executive must develop and maintain a quality assurance and improvement program that covers all aspects of the internal audit activity and continuously monitors its effectiveness. This program includes periodic internal and external quality assessments and ongoing internal monitoring. PowellDorian professionals have been accredited by the Institute of Internal Auditors to perform quality assessments and validations.
