SOX 404 Compliance Kit 323



  • I’m the Corporate Controller of a small public company looking to implement SOX 404 without spending USDUSDUSD on consulting fees. I found 2 programs that state that they can assist in implementation:

    1. ProCognis, Inc., SOX 404 Compliance Kit (.procognis.com)
    2. Cost Advisors, SarboxPro (sarboxpro.com)
      Has anyone used these? Any recommendations? Other suggestions?


  • Problems with these softwares are : they fix-up with certain models and cannot be customised for other complaince requirements. I mean they are not flexible enough.



  • Some info about SOX Tools…
    auditsoftware.net/community/expo/tools/index.htm
    auditsoftware.net/community/expo/contact/vendors.htm
    I am with a small company and in my experience, have had good success with MS Office. For a large company that is decentralized and/or has multiple reporting units, a SOX Tool might be helpful.
    However, a significant investment is required to populate the ‘SOX Box’ with the necessary information and to suit the business model of the Company.
    Hope this helps,
    Milan
