How to narrow it down
- Decide whether you need an audit or review. If so, shortlist only the firms that list attest work.
- Check who would do your work and who reviews it.
- Ask how they work with your software, and whether they close the books monthly or only at year end.
- Ask for the fee basis in writing before the engagement starts.
