SAS 70 Examinations
Third-party service organizations may be expected or contractually obligated to verify the effectiveness of their controls over activities that affect their user organization’s financial statements. Based on AICPA’s Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70, Service Organizations, an independent attest examination can help assure user organizations of the competence of those controls.BKD Risk Management Group can help service organizations refine their processes and improve controls with three types of SAS 70 services:
Gap Analysis - This is an internal review that provides preparatory guidance to help an organization determine its readiness for a SAS 70 review.
Type I Opinion - This report provides an opinion on an organization’s description of controls at a point in time.
BKD's SAS 70 examination helped us to fine tune our processes and procedures, as well as documentation. It allowed us to meet the expectations of our customers, giving them the added assurance that our internal controls and procedures are at very high industry standards.
