What is a SOC Examination?

A SOC Examination is an audit of the internal controls within your business. Completed by an independent CPA firm, SOC Examinations serve to provide assurance to clients and partners that you run your business the right way. 


Do I Need a SOC Examination?

Common reasons to get a SOC Examination include:

  • A request from a client, prospective client, or vendor
  • As part of a wider financial audit
  • Due diligence

It’s common for companies to request a SOC Report before entering into new vendor relationships.  

Beyond that, SOC Examinations afford business leaders the opportunity to assess and improve their internal processes – helping you sleep better at night.

Hear from Strothman

“By having a SOC examination completed and a report produced, businesses can gain valuable insights into their internal processes and ensure that they are operating at peak efficiency. Not only does this help businesses share important information with customers and other stakeholders, but it also allows them to continue doing business with the party that requested the report.

A SOC examination can also provide business owners with peace of mind knowing that their internal processes are robust and compliant with industry standards. If there are gaps or compliance issues within their processes, businesses can take steps to remedy these and ensure they are ready for future SOC examinations.”
