Good companies are constantly horizon-scanning to gain visibility and prepare effectively for future challenges.
At Berwicks, we help businesses to identify and tackle those challenges head-on. By spending time with our clients and applying a tailored approach to the analysis of existing skills and resources, we can deliver clear, informed recommendations on building capability.
Process
Our audit methods are different because we do not use technical experts to challenge your processes. Instead we take an independent, objective view to challenge both your company and industry norms. We use common sense, years of experience and a questioning attitude to get to the heart of potential issues.
Our audits are customised to our clients’ requirements and include face-to-face meetings, workshops, desk research, observations, and risk assessment, as well as reviewing documentation, plans and processes. Our experienced teams are able to assess the finer points of compliance and regulation, providing recommendations tailored to each client’s organisation and industry. Our focus is on identifying gaps or weaknesses and drawing on real-world case studies to inform our findings. We also carry out follow-up audits to assess capabilities and processes as they bed in.
Benefits
By tailoring our audits for each client, we deliver a clearer understanding of current capabilities, areas of risk, legal obligations and where improvements can be made. As the audit is so often part of a broader project, we work with other service areas to deliver improvements for the business as a whole. In every case, the output is a clear recommendation on how to achieve enhanced capability that will deliver increased certainty and confidence for the future.
