Audit for Construction Businesses

External Audit

For many companies, the external audit process will be necessary in order to meet statutory and legal obligations and as such can often seem like a regulatory burden rather than anything of value.

At Scrutton Bland we believe that, as well as providing the comfort that a robust audit can give, it is essential to demonstrate to the directors the added value that such a service can bring to understanding their business.

Our approach

We use the audit process to get inside a business and understand the vision and goals of the Board. Our in-depth knowledge and experience of the sector, over many years, ensures that we are well placed to provide relevant advice and suggest improvements around best practice and efficiency.

In order to effectively audit a company in the construction industry it is vital to understand the processes behind costings and work in progress, and have intelligent conversations around the judgements made. We ensure that these conversations are held by senior members of our team, who will understand your organisation and the decisions that are being made.

Our approach is to add value to your organisation by building an ongoing relationship, and by becoming a trusted adviser we can embed our knowledge and tailor our services to add the very best value we can.
