Do you have concerns about the integrity of the reports that are vital to your business and that you base key decisions on?
When new systems are implemented, reports can become unreliable and misleading.
Modifications made to reports and underlying systems over time can also raise questions as to the reliability of the information being generated.
Many of our clients have been saved from making costly mistakes by finding out that the reports they are relying on do not properly reflect the actual data.
In other cases we have been able to provide assurance that the reports used within the business are working properly and are reliable.
How would you answer these questions?
- Do you rely on reports provided to you by third parties and would like some independent comfort over the make up of those reports?
- Have you recently implemented a system and identified problems with the reports generated?
- Do you know that there are problems with your reports and want to investigate it further?
- Do you get the feeling that some of the reports you use are not telling you the whole story?
Independent confirmation
If you have concerns about any of this, you probably need to consider getting your reports verified by an independent third party.
Our reporting assurance service line takes your raw data and recreates the logic within the report in order to provide a comparison with the system generated version.
We will then help you to understand where the differences are and what changes need to be made.
