Audit Support
Audit-ready from day one.
We prepare books, schedules, and documentation so your audit team can focus on procedures – not rework.
Audit Support Services
Audit season creates a familiar crunch. Your team is stretched, your clients are restless, and half your time is spent chasing supporting schedules and reconciliations that should have been done months ago. Audit support from a properly resourced team one that understands your clients’ compliance requirements before the auditors arrive can reclaim weeks of that time. We deliver comprehensive pre-audit preparation: clean books, detailed schedules, and reconciliation workpapers that meet audit standards on the first submission. Your in-house team runs procedures. We ensure the foundation is solid, auditor-ready, and requires zero rework.
What We Deliver
Consolidation and Workpaper Preparation
Multi-entity consolidation, elimination entries, and intercompany reconciliation
prepared to audit standard.
Schedule and Analysis Build
Fixed assets, debt, equity, deferred tax, revenue recognition, and accrual schedules complete with support and footnote mapping.
Reconciliation Package
Full bank, investment, loan, and customer/vendor reconciliation with exception documentation and resolution trails.
Compliance Checklist and Documentation
Audit readiness checklist mapped to common audit programs confirming all required documentation is present and accessible.
Unusual Transaction Analysis
Review of material or non-routine transactions with explanation and support – reducing auditor questions at fieldwork.
Footnote Drafting Support
Preliminary footnote drafting for complex areas (revenue recognition, contracts, leases, contingencies) based on audit requirements.
Interim Close Support
Mid-year and interim close packages prepared on the same standard as year-end – providing early visibility to trends and issues.
Australia Specialisation NDIS, SCHADS, and Aged Care
Lead partner: Abhay Thakkar, CA, CPA Australia
Our Australia practice includes deep specialisation in NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme), SCHADS (Social, Community, Home Care and Disability Services), and aged care audit support. These highly regulated sectors have specific accounting and compliance requirements that general audit teams often miss:
NDIS provider auditing
We support the financial reporting requirements for NDIS service providers, including revenue recognition under NDIS contracts, participant funding reconciliation, and insurance claim accruals.
Aged care compliance
We prepare aged care operators’ books and audit schedules in compliance with Aged Care Quality Standards, including
resident trust account reconciliation, bond management, and depreciation schedules for facility assets.
SCHADS accounting
We handle social services accounting, including grant reconciliation, donor restrictions, and program-based costing where required by your audit clients.
Abhay’s direct experience with these sectors means our team understands the audit focus areas before the auditors arrive. Rework is minimised. Audit timelines shorten.
