Vibato Internal Control Framework
Our products are not for just large, medium, or small companies, they are for your size company.
An effective internal control framework, today. Imagine that.
We believe that there are many conventional business practices that can be leveraged from company-to-company to save time and money on expensive consulting services.
Accounting degrees and CPA licenses teach a universal skillset that can be leveraged in any organization and a good accountant should already know accounting basics such as how to write a check or post a journal entry.
Since we already understand the basics and have pre-drafted the essential internal controls you will need to become compliant, we can focus our time on tailoring our best practice control language to meet your goals and discussing ideas for improvements. This allows us to complete the documentation effort in a fraction of time versus traditional interview techniques.
We’ve spent the last 15 years creating and refining over 300 pre-drafted, best practice controls that have been vetted 100’s of times with all of the Big 4 accounting firms. Choose from our library of best-practice controls across 19 business areas.
Our internal control experts interview your team and document in real-time your objectives, components, principles, risks, controls, narrative language, etc. to ensure you are left with a complete package that is ready to used and ready to be presented to your external auditors. This also includes:
- Real-time training on the controls concepts & discussing why various controls should be considered
