Frequently asked questions

What leaders ask before getting started

How do you determine the scope of remediation?

We begin with a focused diagnostic of the general ledger, reconciliations, financial statements, documentation, and close process. The findings define the accounts, periods, entities, and priority issues included in the engagement.

Can you work alongside our existing accounting team?

Yes. We can lead the remediation, supplement the team, or provide senior oversight while internal staff complete assigned work. Responsibilities and review points are made explicit from the start.

What if supporting documentation is incomplete?

We reconstruct support from available records, including bank statements, subledgers, contracts, and system exports. Open items, judgments, and required follow-up are tracked in a clear issues log.

Does the work stop once the balances are corrected?

No. The goal is both correction and control. We leave behind close procedures, reconciliation standards, ownership, review evidence, and a repeatable reporting cadence.
