At Baker Tilly, we take a nimble approach. The needs of your company are evolving and perhaps your needs for supplemental resources to assist with SOX compliance may very at times. Our teams are well-positioned to assist you with your SOX compliance program.

As your partner, you will have access to a deep bench of talented specialists who understand your SOX requirements and can help you navigate the compliance requirements in a changing business climate. We establish working relationships with process owners, and maintain relationships with personnel across all levels of the organization including at the management level. You will experience continuity within the engagement team from year-to-year so you never have to feel like you are ‘starting over’. Team continuity and consistency means an efficient and effective compliance effort for your organization, even as tools change.

Some firms outsource work overseas to guarantee cost savings for clients, which often means engagements are completed by individuals who don’t understand your culture and workflows. With Baker Tilly, you will be served by U.S.-based professionals with greater training and oversight, which results in consistent, high-quality deliverables.
