Before you commit

Is Internal Audit the right next step for you?

The commercial facts first — who the work is for, what it costs, how long it takes and what you have to arrange. Everything below is specific to internal audit, not a generic CA brochure.

The short version

  • Internal Audit is normally taken up by growing companies and listed entities.
  • On quotation. The number moves with entity type, volumes and the state of your records; statutory and portal charges are paid at actuals.
  • Timeline: Quarterly / annual — counted from a complete document set, with third-party processing time on top.
  • Plan for 2 core documents and 4 defined stages, starting with SOPs and Transaction data.

Who it is built for

Growing companies and listed entities — that is who this page is written for. If your position is materially different, the scope and the fee change with it, so tell us the facts rather than relying on the ranges here.

What usually triggers it

A statutory obligation, a lender's condition or management's own need for assurance over a process is what puts this on the table.

What the work hinges on

Audit evidence is your ledger, bank, asset and inventory records exactly as they stand — not as they are meant to be. For Internal Audit, that means 2 core documents and a clear picture of your entity and activity.

What you are left with

Reduced risk, process efficiency, fraud detection. Findings become an action list, and the controls behind them are what you carry into the next year.

Scope

What Internal Audit includes — and what it doesn't

Quotes are only comparable when the deliverables and the exclusions are written down. This is the full picture of what you are buying, what you supply and what sits outside the fee.

What the engagement covers

  • A scoping conversation first, so the document list, the fee and the timeline are agreed before work starts
  • Preparation and internal review of every form, schedule or draft Internal Audit needs
  • Submission and tracking through to acknowledgement or certificate
  • Replies to queries raised while the matter is being processed
  • A named chartered accountant as your point of contact, on phone, email or WhatsApp

Documents you arrange

  • SOPs
  • Transaction data

What you end up with

  • Reduced risk
  • Process efficiency
  • Fraud detection
  • Working papers, acknowledgements and certificates handed over in one place

Outside this scope

  • Government, registry and portal charges, which are paid at actuals
  • Corrections to earlier periods or filings, quoted separately once we have seen them
  • Processing time at the department or registry, which no adviser controls
  • Any outcome that rests on a regulator's decision — we prepare and represent, we do not promise approvals

Get these ready first

SOPs, Transaction data are the items that usually hold things up. Scan them clearly, check that names and addresses agree across documents, and flag anything held in a different legal name before we start.

How it runs

The Internal Audit process, stage by stage

4 stages, each one confirmed with you before the next begins. You approve the working before anything is submitted in your name.

  1. 1

    Risk assessment

    We confirm what Internal Audit needs in your case and agree the document list, the fee and who signs, before any work starts.

  2. 2

    Audit plan

  3. 3

    Testing

  4. 4

    Report & action plan

    Handover closes the engagement: final documents, acknowledgements and working papers in one place, with a note on what the next cycle will ask for.

Two things decide the timeline

How quickly the document set is complete, and how quickly queries are answered once the matter sits with the department or registry. The published turnaround assumes the first of those is sorted on day one.

What typically delays Internal Audit

Schedules that do not tie back to the ledger, and records handed over in pieces, are what stretch audit timelines. We check for exactly this before anything is submitted, because a query answered late costs more time than the filing itself.

Compare

Statutory, internal and special-purpose audits

Three very different exercises get called an audit. Knowing which one you need decides the scope, the evidence you prepare and who ends up reading the report.

 Statutory auditInternal auditSpecial-purpose audit
Driven byLaw and your entity's obligationsManagement's need for assuranceA lender, investor or one specific question
ScopeThe financial statements as a wholeSelected risks, processes and locationsDefined narrowly, in advance
Main audienceShareholders, lenders and regulatorsManagement and the boardWhoever asked for it
RhythmAnnualQuarterly, or to a risk planAs and when required
What it producesAn opinion on the financialsAn action list on controlsA finding on one defined question

This comparison is general guidance on how the work is usually structured. Which option applies to you depends on your facts, so treat it as a starting point for a conversation rather than advice.

Avoid these

Where Internal Audit usually goes wrong

Most delays are not technical. They come from paperwork that disagrees with itself, decisions taken too late, or a filing treated as the end of the matter.

Starting with an incomplete file

Work stalls when evidence arrives in pieces. SOPs is the item most often missing or out of date, and nothing can be submitted around it.

Details that disagree across documents

Schedules that do not tie back to the ledger, and records handed over in pieces, are what stretch audit timelines.

Treating it as a one-off

Findings become an action list, and the controls behind them are what you carry into the next year. Keep the working papers — the next filing, audit or lender review asks for exactly those files.
