Our Approach

Our firm applies a disciplined, enterprise-grade methodology rooted in SOX, COBIT, NIST, and global audit standards. Every engagement is executed with clarity, structure, and rigor — whether we’re supporting your SOX program, maturing your IT general controls, or preparing your environment for internal or external audits.
This approach reduces risk, strengthens compliance, and provides long-term operational stability.

  1. Understand: We begin by learning your systems, architecture, applications, and control owners.
    We assess your existing processes, prior audit results, documentation quality, and control design to identify strengths, gaps, and quick-win improvements.
  2. Organize: We standardize, structure, and operationalize your ITGC processes.
    This includes defining roles and responsibilities, improving evidence workflows, establishing consistent review procedures, and implementing documentation that passes auditor scrutiny.
  3. Support: We provide ongoing advisory or operational support — monthly or quarterly — with predictable communication, pre-audit checks, and clear reporting.
    Our involvement keeps your control environment stable, prevents surprise deficiencies, and ensures readiness for internal and external auditors.
  4. Optimize: We continually refine your ITGC ecosystem for efficiency, automation, and scalability.
    Whether maturing your access reviews, change-management workflows, or backup monitoring processes, we help build a sustainable compliance framework that grows with your organization.

We are a team of ambitious entrepreneurs operating in Charlotte.
