Committee packs
What sits inside a Digitalnetgenius audit committee pack — section by section — so chairs know what to expect before engaging us.
A committee pack is not a dump of schedules. It is a curated set of papers timed to your circulation deadline, written so independent directors can prepare without a full accounting background.
Typical contents
- Agenda map — which paper supports which agenda item
- Financial highlights — period movement with brief causes, not raw trial balances
- Significant judgements — estimation methods, sensitivity, and what changed since the last sitting
- Related parties & unusual items — transactions directors should be ready to question
- Control findings summary — severity, owners, and status against prior commitments
- External auditor status — open queries likely to reach the table
- Open-issues tracker — dated actions with named owners
- Chair briefing (one page) — where discussion time is best spent
Timing we aim for
| Milestone | Typical timing |
|---|---|
| Scope confirmed | At engagement acceptance |
| Evidence checklist issued | Within 3 business days |
| First full draft | 10–14 days before circulation |
| Challenge session with CFO | 7–10 days before circulation |
| Final pack & chair briefing | On or before your circulation date |
What you supply
Prior pack and minutes, draft accounts or management accounts, known regulatory correspondence, and a nominated finance contact. Without subsidiary schedules on the agreed dates, the narrative sections compress first — we will say so early.
