Is this your situation?

• You need confidence in the quality of the information produced by your IT systems.
• You rely on financial information from a third party and need independent assurance on that information.
• Your organisation provides services to a company and you've been asked to provide a SAS 70 report.
• You are implementing—or have just implemented—a new IT system and want a review of the controls.
• You are entering into a joint venture or other transaction and need due diligence on systems and controls.
