Confidence in Every Number. Clarity in Every Report.
SSL Associates provides independent audit and assurance services designed to help clients meet regulatory requirements. Our approach emphasizes accuracy, timeliness, and clear financial reporting, helping clients build confidence with regulators and stakeholders.
Every audit is led by experienced CPAs who stay involved from planning the audit to the final reports. We keep communication clear and produce results your regulatory agencies, board, and other stakeholders can rely upon.
Our Audit & Assurance Services
We provide clear, timely reports that reflect a disciplined approach and open communication. Every result is accurate and easy to understand.
Financial Statement Audit
Each audit follows a structured process built for accuracy and consistency. We confirm that financial statements reflect reliable information through analytical procedures and key account confirmations. The result gives stakeholders clear insight and full confidence in compliance.
Financial Statement Review & Compilation
Our review and compilation services adjust to the level of assurance your organization requires. Reviews provide limited assurance through analytics procedures and inquiries. Compilations organize financial data into clear, accurate statements. Both meet accounting standards and give stakeholders a reliable view of performance.
Single Audit / Yellow Book Audits
We perform these specialized audits for organizations that receive funding from federal, state, or local government agencies. These engagements are conducted in accordance with Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards (GAGAS). Our team reviews all regulations with precision — testing internal controls, assessing grant management and reporting, and identifying opportunities to strengthen program oversight.
Agreed-Upon Procedures (AUP) Engagement
Each AUP engagement targets a defined objective and delivers measurable results. The process verifies financial data, tests compliance, and investigates irregularities where needed. Findings give management the insight to act with confidence and reduce risk.
Our Approach
Audits should not disrupt daily operations. Each engagement follows a clear plan with defined timelines and direct communication. The process stays structured from start to finish, so leadership can stay focused on their mission.
- A Process You Can Follow
Every stage is planned in advance, so your team knows what will happen and when. The approach stays transparent and consistent, with updates shared throughout the audit.
- On Schedule
Our team plans proactively and coordinates closely to ensure each engagement is completed on schedule.
- Direct Access to the Audit Team
Our team is responsive and approachable. We explain complex matters in plain language, so you always understand what’s happening and why.
- Results with Purpose
Our reports meet all required standards and give leadership clear data to act with confidence.
