An internal control review examines whether the procedures your finance team describes on paper are the procedures that actually run day to day. We walk payment batches from request to bank release, test revenue cut-off around period end, and sample inventory valuation adjustments where stock is material.
When this engagement fits
Choose this review when a lender, auditor, or new CFO asks whether key controls operate — or when a near-miss payment error has made leadership uneasy. It is narrower than a full financial risk assessment audit and usually completes in two to three weeks for a single entity.
Deliverable
You receive a control matrix for the processes in scope, exception notes with evidence references, and practical remediation wording your team can adopt without a full redesign project. We do not issue an attestation opinion; we document what we observed and where evidence was missing.
