Financial Audit

Financial performance is a subject close to the heart of most clients. 

The Stern Consultancy team have developed a comprehensive audit procedure that is adapted to the specific requirements of each client. 

We will establish whether our client is benefiting from best value catering available in the market by interrogating the catering account, including the following key areas:

  • Is the caterer maximising sales?
  • Is food being procured at the most competitive cost and is it being processed effectively when it is on site?
  • Is the staffing structure appropriate for the services required and are the pay rates fair and competitive?
  • What if any additional costs are being applied to the account and are they fair and competitive?
  • If contracted, are the contractor's earnings competitive?

The reports we present to our clients provide them with a clear understanding of their catering accounts and the way they are being operated.  We make clear recommendations so that our report can be used practically to improve financial performance.
