AUDIT INNOVATION

INNOVATION IS THE KEY TO GETTING MORE FROM YOUR AUDIT.

Evolving regulations. Disparate technology systems. Staffing challenges. 

All these issues can make the audit process more complicated than it needs to be
— and present a real threat to audit quality. At a time when CFOs and finance
teams are already overburdened, they not only need auditors with the skills and
experience to evaluate their financial statements in the context of their
business environment; they need innovative business insights and an exceptional
audit experience.

Transformation happens at the intersection of technology and human curiosity. We
offer a transformed audit that delivers more with less demands on your resources
— more insight on business performance and high confidence to your stakeholders.




BDOADVANTAGE FOR YOUR AUDIT

At BDO, we cultivate a curious mindset in our people: the curiosity to ask
questions, challenge assumptions and imagine new possibilities. We continuously
evaluate and improve our methodologies, technologies and applications to empower
our people and unlock more value from your data. 

BDOADVANTAGE is our digital audit suite built to enhance the client experience
and drive audit quality. It empowers our audit teams to create more insights
with greater precision for a seamless audit from start to finish.




BDOADVANTAGE DIGITAL SUITE




OUR APPROACH TO AUDIT INNOVATION

At BDO, we’re guided by professional curiosity and inspired by our core purpose:
helping people thrive every day. When we apply our curiosity to audit innovation
through the lens of our purpose, the outcomes are deeper insights, better
collaboration and greater accuracy, resulting in high quality audits. 

TRANSFORMATIVE TECHNOLOGY
ADD

We created BDOADVANTAGE to transform the audit experience by empowering our team
to unearth insights beyond the obvious. We use cognitive technology to automate
client data extraction and integration, creating significant time savings for
your team. We continue to invest in innovative technology to improve
collaboration and reduce the burden on our clients.

HELPING OUR PEOPLE THRIVE
ADD

Human ingenuity and social innovation transform the way we effectively use
technology. 

We believe both traditional and non-traditional labor pools are critical to
building diverse audit teams with the right experience and skills to conduct the
audit of the future. Our culture is centered on the development of our people.
We invest in technical, soft skills, and ethics training as well as digital
upskilling programs to enable our auditors to deliver high-quality audits for
all our stakeholders. 

INNOVATION FOR OUR STAKEHOLDERS
ADD

Our innovation strategy is centered on what’s most valuable to our stakeholders.
For our clients, we focus on innovations that create less work for you and
harness your data in new ways. For our clients' investors, customers and the
broader public, we focus on innovations that deliver more transparency and
higher quality.  

Our industry professionals, data scientists and developers collaborate to adapt
our technology to the ever-changing regulatory environment and emerging trends.

INDUSTRY FOCUS
ADD

Understanding the nuances of industry is critical to assessing risk, enhancing
quality and uncovering practical insights. We invest in industry-specific
analytics and automation solutions to conduct a high-quality audit with your
industry in mind.
