VANCOUVER, BC CANADA, December 16, 2002 – ACL Services Ltd. today announced the launch of its new Web site with improved resources for both the auditing and broader financial management sectors.
The redesigned www.acl.com focuses on ACL’s Business Assurance solutions, designed to meet the challenges faced by CFOs, business unit managers, and other financial and audit professionals in today’s business environment. With the demands imposed by new regulatory pressures and increased market scrutiny, failure to quickly identify and correct potential weaknesses in internal controls, deficiencies in compliance policies, and systemic transaction risks can expose organizations to financial loss and diminished credibility. The new Web site highlights information on the ways clients around the world have used ACL Business Assurance solutions to first identify indicators of profit erosion, revenue leakage and financial loss, then address these high-risk areas through data analysis and continuous monitoring applications.
“We want the new ACL.com to address the deeper challenges facing financial managers and organizations today,” says Harald Will, president and CEO of ACL. “Our clients are looking for fast, effective controls compliance solutions to assist them in meeting these new challenges. Our Business Assurance solutions will give our clients the answers they need to make business decisions with speed and confidence.”
Simplified site navigation gives quick access to more information and improved online services. New Web site features include a headline news page featuring key articles relevant to the audit and finance sector, white papers on pertinent issues like fraud and continuous monitoring, and a multi-media presentation on the power of ACL’s Business Assurance solutions. Customer touch points such as the ACL global channels center, event listings, and online registration for training courses have also been revamped with enhanced functionality and an updated look.
Customer feedback is a key driver behind many of the revisions to www.acl.com. “The Internet is a cornerstone for any company doing business today. As a global organization with clients operating throughout the world, we felt it was imperative that the new ACL.com address the critical questions of the day and reflect ACL’s position as a leader in Business Assurance solutions,” states Will. “This is the information our customers have been asking for.”
The announcement marks the first step for re-architecting ACL’s online presence. Subsequent phases, to be concluded early in 2003, focus on redesigning the localized language sites and expanding and enhancing the services offered to supported ACL users through the online Support Center.
A world-recognized leader in the provision of the technology building blocks that support a sound Business Assurance plan, ACL helps organizations achieve greater confidence in the integrity of data that underlies all financial reporting.
