21st Century ProductivityPeter Drucker, the management guru who coined the term “knowledge worker,” said in the late 1990s: “The most important contribution of management in the 20th Century was the fifty-fold increase in the productivity of the manual worker in manufacturing. The most important contribution management needs to make in the 21st Century is similarly to increase the productivity of the knowledge worker.”

Problems1. COSO/SOX/SSAE 15 requires that, “To express an opinion on internal
control taken as a whole, the auditor should obtain evidence about the effectiveness of selected controls over all relevant assertions.”How are you doing this currently?
2. COSO/SOX requires that “Each of the five components of internal control and relevant principles is present and functioning.”How are you doing this currently?
To effectively meet the above challenges, you must map controls to F/S Line Items, the relevant Assertions and the Principles. Reporting tools to analyze, monitor and demonstrate compliance is critical.
