Are you a statutory auditor?
No. We provide non-statutory FDD/Review/AUP for decision-making. Independence preserved; we don’t issue statutory opinions or file returns.
How is this different from factory “quality audits”?
Quality audits check ISO/process/compliance. We perform financial tie-outs—invoice ↔ shipment ↔ cash, VAT/COGS reality, cash controls, allocations, and related-party exposure.
Can the scope be tailored?
Yes. We agree procedures up-front (AUP style), define the sampling frame, and report exactly what we tested and found.
Which services do clients pick most often?
Supplier FDD before large POs or new supplier onboarding
Partner & JV AUP/Review before renewals, capital increases, or GM/CFO changes
Tax Compliance Review when scaling exports or preparing rebates

How long to deliver?

Remote-only possible?
