The Buyer’s Guide provides the first comprehensive look at this emerging market, covering more
than 145 vendors and containing material literally available nowhere else. Roughly one-half of
the Guide’s pages is made up of essays and articles from the three coauthors on how to
successfully implement a computer-aided audit environment, what tools to implement first, how to
negotiate with vendors, what the real long-term benefits of new software are likely to be, who
needs training, what sort of schedule is realistic, and how to avoid winding up with a lot
ofostly shelfware! The remainder of the book consists of in-depth coverage of each vendor,
including their history, unique features of their products, and support for user groups, contact
information, and more.
“For internal and external auditors, fraud examiners, financial and IT managers, this Guide could
asily save tens of thousands of dollars and more importantly, make your next software
implementation a timely success rather than a drawn-out exercise in frustration.” Sarbanes-Oxley

WHAT'S NEW IN THE 2006 BUYER'S GUIDE
To start, our collective research time spent in developing the Buyer’s Guide exceeded 850 hours.
This is time that you should save in reviewing the associated vendors as we are doing our best to
serve up to you what you need to know when selecting vendor(s). More specifically, we
have:
> Updated the top trends affecting the industry and your next purchase based on interviews,
surveys, and consulting assignments with users and vendors.
> Included a new section on “What Holds Back Implementing Audit, Anti-Fraud, and Assurance
Software….and How To Fix It”, as well as, a related chapter on “An Effective Data Analysis
Methodology”
> Updated all of the software functionality sections in the guide based on new research and
findings.
> Included a new section on Benchmarking and External Data Tools as we see more companies using
benchmarking information to better manage their business.
> Added close to 50% more vendors to the guide based on new entrants to the marketplace and a
further expansion of the “net of audit software”.
