With its headquarters in Lusaka, Zambia, and offices across the country, as well as in Namibia and Zimbabwe, ABACUS360 offers a range of services, including CFO and accounting outsourcing, transfer pricing and tax advisory, business advisory services, audit, and assurance. Mubanga Katongo, Audit Senior at ABACUS360 said the move to Caseware was prompted by the firm’s need to maximise the productivity of its audit teams and ensure that the financial statements it produces are compliant with the growing number of global standards and regulations.
Caseware’s cloud platform made it the first choice to enable seamless collaboration between dispersed team members, with no issues of version control. The centralised document store and good visibility offered by Caseware means that managers and quality assurance personnel can monitor audits easily and effectively. Its constantly updated portfolio of templates provide assurance that the financial statements produced comply with all the latest applicable regulations and standards.
Another important benefit is the fact that Caseware’s interface is so intuitive and easy to use, in part because it is so similar to Microsoft Office. As a result, Mr Katongo says, the learning curve towards proficiency was surprisingly quick for most team members. “By allowing us to improve the quality of our work while enhancing productivity, Caseware will ultimately impact our profitability. The easy-to-use interface is a bonus and I have to say that the Caseware support team in South Africa is very responsive whenever we have a query,” Mr Katongo concludes
