Preparing for a BBBEE audit

Be prepared for your BEE audit

Ensure a Smooth, Accurate and Efficient Audit. Preparing for your BEE audit is essential to ensure your B-BBEE certificate accurately reflects your transformation efforts. Many measured entities invest significant amount of time and resources to transform the company only to achieve a lower BEE level than expected due to audit-related challenges. 

Common pitfalls include: 

   Misalignment among stakeholders on B-BBEE scorecard                                       interpretations, calculations, timelines

   Limited understanding of the BEE verification process and  Legislation

   Inability to provide the required supporting                                                   documentation to the BEE verification agent

   Missing the verification timelines of a particular  BEE verification                       agency

    Failure to the draft audit results against the company                                  forecast and liaising with the verification agent
