SOX Compliance Services:
Adams Harris adds value to clients at any stage in the SOX compliance process, whether it is a first time filing or on-going compliance. Adams Harris utilizes our internally developed SOX templates/process or we can use your existing SOX documentation or process. We are adept at quickly and effectively taking over SOX compliance from a prior outside service provider. Adams Harris provides a range of SOX services across many industries including:

• Consulting and program design
• SOX assessments
• Controls design, testing and remediation
• Documentation
• Reporting
• Training of client employees
• Project management or project resources

All of these services are available by the hour, in a fixed fee arrangement where appropriate or on an outsourced or retained basis. In any client engagement, great value (affordable price and highest quality service) is what we offer – it is the cornerstone of our SOX practice at Adams Harris.

• First time filers
  For clients that are preparing for their first SOX filing, Adams Harris can assess the situation, prepare all financial statement scoping, prepare all documentation, test controls and perform gap remediation. We seek to help our clients be SOX prepared and compliant in the most efficient and affordable manner.
• On-going compliance and support
  For clients that have completed their initial SOX filing, Adams Harris can re-evaluate and update all documentation, perform control testing and remediate recurring control deficiencies that exist as part of the on-going compliance process. We can also help update SOX documentation and perform testing for major changes like new systems, mergers and acquisitions, expansion efforts, etc.

In any scenario, we believe clear and realistic cost estimations need to be prepared for our clients to avoid the big SOX fee surprises that our competitors have been subjecting the market to during the past several years.

Adams Harris is not a CPA firm.
