The McAllister Consulting practice
includes assisting firms in meeting the the Sarbanes-Oxley (ISOxsm)
requirements from an ISO platform:
Sarbanes-Oxley legislation of 2002 has raised the bar on management and
auditor accountability of many aspects of corporate governance. Several of
its requirements relate directly to the systems and procedures that
support accurate data recording and reporting. While the focus is on
financial data, anything of material impact to the business is subject to
reporting requirements. In particular, management must assess the "control
environment" and have evidence to support its attestations about its
systems.
Compliance to ISO 9000 and ISO 14001 requirements can help management
achieve the systems and procedural integrity necessary to substantiate
its assessment of adequate internal controls. Many aspects of ISO support
this:
 |
document and records control systems |
|
management review activities |
|
the
corrective and preventive action systems |
|
internal auditing evidence, especially the process audit approach |
|
transactional emphasis (e.g., processing of customer orders and purchase
orders) |
As
companies prepare to demonstrate compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley
requirements, consider your ISO system as a logical platform.
