Challenges to entities today are more complex than ever before. Continuous change to government regulations, an unpredictable economy, and evolving technology mean you need informed, responsive professionals to turn to. We want to be your trusted advisor by providing a wide range of services to help you identify and respond to these challenges and opportunities. Our assurance professionals rely on a thorough understanding of each client and its industry and internal controls.
This allows us to provide high-quality, cost-efficient assurance services with a strong focus on identifying opportunities for improvement. Audit services are designed to provide stakeholders with objective and independent assurance concerning the accuracy and reliability of the information presented. At Armstrong, Backus & Co., we understand the importance of each assurance service we provide to our clients. We bring knowledge, experience, and insight to every project. That means our clients and their stakeholders can have confidence in the results of an Armstrong, Backus & Co. engagement and trust the information they are relying on to make critical decisions. We consider the success of our clients to be our success as we grow together in our communities.
Advisory Services
As part of the audit, we also deliver management comments which discuss specific areas of financial management, performance, reporting, or the enhancement of the system of controls in place at your organization. The knowledge we gain through the audit process helps us in all areas of advisory service and allows us to proactively deliver solutions, providing value to your organization.
Review Services
In some cases you may not need a full audit when a review will be sufficient. When we conduct our review, we use analysis and inquiry, rather than the verification procedures of an audit, to give limited assurance on your financial statements. This well-defined service is often an acceptable and more efficient alternative to an audit — helping you save valuable time while gaining expert insight on your organization.
Compilation Services
An additional alternative for many clients is a compilation. Our compilation services include pulling together your information in the form of financial statements. While there is no expression of assurance in our report, we will thoroughly discuss the financial statements with you to help you understand your financial results so you can manage your business more effectively.
