If you work in the audit and accountancy profession and you’ve found this page, you will already be aware that Root Cause Analysis has become the go-to problem solving methodology in your sector.
 
Firms, professional bodies, and regulators alike, are strongly encouraging practitioners to employ effective RCA as way to substantially improve audit quality. Sologic is far and away the leading provider of Root Cause Analysis to this sector.
 
So, what exactly is an effective RCA and what does it deliver in terms of improved audit quality? At its core, RCA is a process for identifying the causes of problems or events in order to prevent them from recurring. It is based on the idea that effective management requires more than putting out fires for problems that develop but finding a way to prevent them from happening in the first place. RCA can also be employed as a means of identifying best practice, supporting continual improvement and rewarding evidence-based decision making.

The methodology assists audit professionals with:
  • Identifying underlying causes of significant problems or successes
  • Delivering solutions with immediate and lasting impact
  • Helping establish best practice and greater efficiency
  • Compliance with the expectations and guidelines of regulators
  • Building a better reputation and experience for clients
  • Instilling a deep-rooted positive problem-solving culture in your firm
  • Automated reports for improved transparency and compliance
  • Creating a competitive edge for winning new business
