Signs of tool sprawl in Accounting and Audit

  • Every client uses a different portal (yours, theirs, ShareFile, OneDrive, email, paper) — half of audit hours go to gathering and reformatting evidence.
  • Audit documentation in the workpaper system still requires manual re-keying from PDFs, bank statements, and Excel exports.
  • Tax preparation is a copy-paste exercise across five systems; review notes pile up because reviewers can't see what the preparer actually did.
