ValuLink Approach and Solution:
Our client company had to complete their Management Assessment of Internal Controls over Financial Reporting (ICFR) under the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 (Sox) and SEC Rules for non-accelerated public companies. We performed segregation of duties analysis, GAP analysis, testing project plan, test plan development, remediation identification, in addition to assisting other ICFR cycles and control deficiencies analysis. We organized Sox Workshop/Training Sessions for our client company. The Sox Workshop covered topics to assist our client company in accelerating through the Sox learning cover prior to executing on its Management Assessment of ICFR. We significantly contributed and guided our client company through its Risk Assessment process and Evaluation of Control Deficiencies. This was our client company’s first compliance implementation as required by the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.

We ensured an efficient and effective assessment and implementation of its internal control environment over financial reporting. With the help of ValuLink’s expert guidance throughout the engagement, our client company could successfully complete their Management Assessment of ICFR.
