Features of PwC audit services
PwC operates in 158 countries around the world. The company employs 250,000 people. PwC experts provide consultancy services to large banks, oil and gas, metallurgy, telecommunications, electricity and other companies and help them conduct an independent assessment of the financial situation of their business (audit), improve the accuracy of strategic decisions and build customer confidence. The audit results are used not only by shareholders and owners of firms, but also by government organizations, suppliers of goods and services, business partners and many others.
PwC specialists normally conduct audit checks by making arrangements to visit the clients’ offices to collect information on their companies’ financial activities. The consultants analyze and evaluate the necessary documents, such as invoices, contracts and checks. PwC experts then draw conclusions based on the audit evidence gathered, and also provide recommendations to the clients on diverse issues including which financial indicators to pay attention to, how to increase business transparency, and what development strategy to choose, etc.
The existing best practice among firms requires that auditors retain all audit documentation provided by the client. PwC employees scan originals at the client’s office and send them to secure electronic storage. In order to solve this problem, a mobile application based on ABBYY intelligent technologies was specifically developed.
