How does your organization set itself apart from the competition? A service organization control report (SOC - previously known as SAS 70) can be used as an effective tool to demonstrate that your organization is proactive in obtaining a highly regarded independent opinion about the soundness of your organization's controls. Only an independent certified public accounting firm can perform a service organization control report engagement.
Eide Bailly is qualified to perform service organization control reports for your company. With this type of engagement, you can choose from two different reports to meet your needs. The first option (Type I) reports on controls placed in operation and the second option (Type II) reports on controls placed in operation and tests operating effectiveness. These tests include the following areas: control environment, risk assessment, monitoring, computer general controls, computer application controls, information system processing and user responsibilities.
A commitment to strong internal controls can differentiate your organization from the competition. In addition to our insightful and experienced CPAs, you will have access to technology consultants who are knowledgeable with internal controls and have affiliations with information security and business continuity planning organizations like Certified Information System Security Professionals and Information Systems Audit and Control Association.
