SOX-Ready Architecture & Zero-Trust Governance

 

Human error in finace and accounting isn't just a mistake—it's a structural risk. In 2026, we vet our partners for Hard-Coded Internal Controls that satisfy the most stringent global audit requirements.

Ralf Ellspermann, CSO, PITON-Global

Segregation of Duties (SoD) Enforcement

Digital audit trails ensure that the individual processing an invoice is never the same individual authorizing payment.

Zero-Trust Data Access

Philippine finance and accounting teams work directly within your ERP (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite) via secure VDI. No financial data is ever stored locally in the Philippines.

Immutable PBC Evidence

Every journal entry is backed by digital "Prepared-By-Client" evidence, significantly reducing external audit fees.

2026 F&A Case Study: The 70% Speed Increase

The Challenge:
A Silicon Valley SaaS provider was struggling with a 15-day close and rising audit fees. The PITON Solution: We deployed 15 CPA-qualified specialists in the Philippines to manage multi-entity consolidations via NetSuite.

The Results:

Close Cycle

Reduced from 15 days to 4 business days.

Audit Fees

Decreased by 22% due to the "Audit-Ready" PBC documentation.

Overhead

Achieved a 55% reduction in back-office costs

In 2026, the goal of outsourcing finance isn't just to save money—it’s to buy back your internal team's time. By moving the high-volume 'engine room' of AP, AR, and Reconciliations to the Philippines, you allow your onshore CFO to focus on strategic growth, M&A, and capital allocation.
