Services Solutions : Assurance Services

Performing audits has been the cornerstone of Malin, Bergquist for more than 40 years. Our audits do more than just verify the facts; we use them to give our clients a blueprint for better, more effective financial practices and decision-making in the future. We place great value on identifying opportunities for clients to improve their operations, from waste reduction to payment cycle adjustments and more. Every audit complies with professional standards, and is geared toward uncovering your business’s strengths in order to achieve maximum efficiency.


Our Tailored Audit Approach

We do not use a cookie cutter approach to auditing clients. Rather, we focus on you and your business. At the outset, we meet with you to design an individualized audit plan based on your business operations, your controls and your timetable. We remain in constant communication with you throughout the audit process and throughout the year, so that we can respond to your needs and requirements as they change.

As part of the audit process, we evaluate and assess your risks, including:

  • Assessing inherent risks at the financial record and account balance levels 
  • Evaluating your internal control structure and the subsequent assessment of your control risk
  • Assessing the effectiveness of your analytical procedures in controlling and detecting risk
After we have established a plan and assessed inherent risks, we use industry-specific audit programs to address critical risks impacting your company. When possible, we use technology to perform fewer manual procedures, thus significantly improving audit efficiency and effectiveness.
