About the Firm

Accell was founded in 2004 with the mission of providing high quality accounting and technology audit services at competitive rates. Accell Global Risk Solutions (GRS) emerged from Accell’s Risk Consulting practice, establishing itself as a separate company in July 2009. Since that time, GRS has grown steadily each year by focusing on our #1 core value –always do the right thing for your clients and your team. We work with our clients to provide Internal Audit co-sourcing and outsourcing services including projects focused on IT Audit, Operational Audits, and Sarbanes Oxley Compliance (SOX).  We foster collaborative relationships with our client’s management teams to identify compliance issues, assist with remediation, and provide ongoing assessments of their internal control environment.

 

Our values as a professional services firm extend to how we mentor and support our team internally. We promote mentorship relationships at all levels of our organizations for continued professional and personal growth. Employees are also encouraged to participate in our firms’ committees (Health and Wellness, Social Responsibility, Event Planning “FUN”) and professional subject matter support groups (CIA, CISA, CPA, SAP, Cybersecurity). Accell’s committees and professional subject matter support groups help each employee continue to build their industry knowledge and share their valuable life experience with each other.
