Global eProcure Receives SAS 70 Type II Report and ISO 9001:2008 Certification

Online, April 20, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Global eProcure is proud to announce that it obtained an unqualified SAS 70 Type II report for its entities in Clark, NJ and Mumbai, India. SAS 70 (Statement on Auditing Standards No. 70) is granted following an audit of a services business such as a product development and SaaS company that reviews its entire internal control framework and evaluates its internal control processes. The SAS 70 Type I and II independent auditor reports do not show any exceptions and will give clients the confidence that Global eProcure is a reliable entity that has demonstrated robust internal controls. This SAS 70 Type II showcases to other stakeholders that their internal controls are above market standards.

Subhash Makhija, CEO and Co-Founder remarked, "In the current market environment, our product solutions can assist clients by reducing their operational and administrative burdens associated with their procurement life cycle, enabling them to focus on their core business activities."

SAS 70 reports are drawn up by an independent auditor in line with a standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. They consist of Type I reports, which describe the activities of a company and determine whether the controls in place are suitable and in operation at a certain date, and Type II reports, which assess the operating effectiveness of these controls - after independent auditors perform rigorous tests. Madhav Vedula, Auditor, PAG, has assessed and drawn the SAS 70 report for Global eProcure.

Global eProcure has also been assessed and certified as meeting the requirements of ISO 9001:2008 for its quality management system. ISO 9001:2008 specifies requirements for a quality management system where an organization needs to demonstrate its ability to consistently provide products that meet customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, and aims to enhance customer satisfaction and processes for continual improvement.

The company plans to continue the internal control review process to bolster their Risk Assessment and Mitigation strategies.

About SAS 70

Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70, Service Organizations, is a widely recognized auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). A service auditor's examination performed in accordance with SAS No. 70 ("SAS 70 Audit") is widely recognized, because it represents that a service organization has been through an in-depth audit of their control objectives and control activities, which often include controls over information technology and related processes. In today's global economy, service organizations or service providers must demonstrate that they have adequate controls and safeguards when they host or process data belonging to their customers. In addition, the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 make SAS 70 audit reports even more important to the process of reporting on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.
