MindBridge for review engagements

We continue to expand the applicability of MindBridge across audit and assurance services. With this release, customers can extend usage of MindBridge beyond traditional audit engagements and can switch off audit-specific features when performing review engagements.

Now, you can create unique profiles for review engagements, ensuring that presented insights align with your methodology and documentation requirements.

Your benefits:

  • Spend more time analyzing information and less time building workpapers
  • Use data to enhance understanding of overall company performance
  • Quickly identify unusual circumstances or trends for more precise inquiries
