Need Clarity on a Specific Business Area? Let Agreed-Upon Procedures Lead the Way

Business Questions Deserve Focused Answers

In today’s dynamic and data-driven business environment, leaders often need to zero in on specific concerns—whether it’s a particular revenue stream, inventory valuation, compliance issue, or contractual obligation. But when time is short and the stakes are high, a full-scale audit might not be the most efficient or necessary solution.

That’s where Agreed-Upon Procedures (AUPs) come in. These focused, customizable reviews allow businesses to gain precise insights into targeted areas—without the cost, time, or scope of a traditional audit. At Dawgen Global, our experts design and deliver AUP engagements that provide timely, factual findings to support informed decisions, stakeholder assurance, and operational clarity.

What Are Agreed-Upon Procedures?

Agreed-Upon Procedures (AUPs) are specialized audit services where the scope is defined by the client and executed by a professional, independent auditor. The procedures focus on a clearly outlined area of concern and yield a factual report—no opinions or conclusions—just the truth, backed by evidence.

Unlike full audits or broad reviews, AUPs are:

• Narrow in focus

• Flexible in scope

• Tailored to specific needs

• Completed on a tight schedule

This makes them ideal for businesses that need answers about a particular issue, fast.

Why Focused Reviews Matter

Whether you’re a CEO, CFO, investor, or board member, you’ve likely faced moments where a narrow but urgent question required validation:

• Are inventory records accurately reflecting physical stock?

• Has a specific grant been used in compliance with its terms?

• Is the revenue from a joint venture properly recognized?

These situations don’t call for a full audit—they call for clarity with a purpose. Agreed-Upon Procedures allow you to cut through the noise, hone in on the issue, and receive independently verified facts that you can act on with confidence.

Practical Applications of AUPs

Agreed-Upon Procedures are invaluable in a wide range of business scenarios:

• 📈 Investor Due Diligence: Before funding, investors want assurance on specific metrics.

• 🤝 Partnership Verification: Joint venture partners may need validation of profit-sharing calculations.

• 🏢 Regulatory Filings: Government agencies may require certified data to confirm compliance.
