Gravita audits are robust, transparent and delivered on time.
Developed with finance directors, audit committees and non executive directors, our audits are designed to be streamlined for efficiency.
Our team of experts are always at the cutting edge of technology to make communication, planning and workflow efficient and effective. We understand your organisation, so focus on your specific risks and help you deliver compliant, clear information to those who matter. We always ensure the assignment is thoroughly planned out and stick to agreed timetables. Switching to us from a previous auditor? We get up to speed, fast, and ensure everything is in order from start to finish.
Every audit is overseen by our incredibly knowledgeable partners, who champion our pioneering tech. Just upload your documents to one simple hub and we’ll take it from there.
Why choose Gravita?
We stick to deadlines. Our approach ensures that potential overruns are managed effectively, with minimal disruption to your team and no compromise on the quality of the audit. We invest more partner time in audit planning and kick-off so you can be confident we will deliver to plan and timings. This includes accounting for significant risk areas and aligning on the overall approach.
We are efficient and technically rigorous. Our approach ensures quality through rigorous technical standards in the areas of risk, sampling, judgement and review. We also understand the opportunity cost of your time and prioritise efficiency. Therefore, we use collaborative tech to ensure the whole team is on the same page. They’re also trained to be focused on the areas of your business that bring you the most value and spend less time on areas that do not.
We make switching auditors easy. Our use of tech means you can expect seamless onboarding and a successful transition between auditors. We streamline the implementation process by working with your previous provider, and quite often have team members who have prior experience working with new Gravita clients. We use digital solutions to stay streamlined so you can focus on doing what you do best.
“I never feel that an audit is particularly burdensome with Gravita. As a rapidly growing company facing many complex challenges, I expected it to be hard, but it’s been incredibly straightforward. We’ve just finished our latest audit, and our team had some resourcing issues but the Gravita team worked around us and it was so smooth with no problems.
I think anyone looking for an experienced team of accountants that feels like a big firm but has a friendly approach should seriously consider using Gravita.”
Wayne St. John, Finance Director of Day Webster, a recruitment outsourcing firm for the NHS
An outsider’s view on your inner workings
We get it. An annual audit can be a burden – sapping time, energy and money. And it’s true that an inefficient audit, with inexperienced auditors, can be painful. That’s why our experts use their huge breadth of knowledge and years of experience combined with technology to make the process as efficient as possible.
Whether you’re a small team of two or an AIM listed business, we’ll deliver a high-quality and independent audit. Our services include voluntary and statutory audits, as well as other assurance services. As an ICAEW regulated auditor, we have experience conducting audits for all sizes and types of business across a broad range of sectors. With a trusted, tried-and-tested process, you can guarantee an audit will add real value – and can be a powerful tool for internal and external stakeholder management.
What’s the process for an audit?
Our audit process breaks down into a series of simple steps:
1. We define a strategy
Once we understand your objectives and business procedures, our experts then tailor an audit approach to you.
2. Planning
In accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) we adopt a risk-based approach to audit and prioritise resources where they’ll deliver the greatest benefit. Our specialists will assess the key day-to-day risks faced by your business and consider how these could impact on the financial statements – then plan their audit process accordingly.
3. Fieldwork
Next, it’s time to gather as much information as possible in detail. We can perform this remotely or at your premises, whichever you prefer – we like to give our clients the choice. This can be asking questions, running tests or collecting samples. Once we have everything we need, we’ll be in contact, keeping things as simple and efficient as possible.
4. Communication and reporting
Our experts thrive off clear and open conversation. That’s why throughout the entire audit process, they’ll maintain regular communication and keep you up-to-date with regulatory developments or changes that could affect your business.
