Dear Andrew
As I leave Garratt Publishing I would like to pass on my sincere thanks for the wonderful work you have done
for me and the company in a time where we have implemented some substantial changes to formalise and
build more robust accounting processes.
Your knowledge, and ability to grasp what is required to fill the gap in service to the organisation has been
invaluable.
I appreciate also the accuracy & timeliness of the financial reporting you have provided and the leading of
robust discussions at the monthly Board meetings. In addition, you have provided great value in the review
of the financial business processes as well as cashflows, projections and budgets.
The new reporting formats you have provided have been easily reviewed by all members of the Board and
have been on time. The representation of accounts has improved in the accuracy and compliance to
appropriate accounting standards.
Your recommend changes to the business to cover exposures in areas of resources and processes in
standardised formats. The company is continuing with your efficiency reviews and improvements in the use
of accounting technology and data analysis to all areas of the organisation.
Andrew, I have been extremely satisfied with the outcomes and advice you have given and are pleased to
have extended the requirements for your service based on your recommendations for areas such as Cash,
Debtors & Inventory and I am confident these will progress well after I leave.
As a result of your work we now have a greater sense of comfort in the data accuracy to enable the
appropriate decisions to be made.
Yours Sincerely
Tony Biviano
CEO
