AICPA's official indexed resource describes separate preparation, compilation, review and audit resources, including a comparative overview. Direct and web retrieval showed only a partial shell, so the detailed overview remains indexed support. Name the proposed engagement instead of implying interchangeable services; an inquiry or quote is not completed assurance work.

PwC describes data acquisition, documentation and document review within its audit workflow. A campaign can explain those process features without guaranteeing faster delivery, perfect detection or an audit opinion. A demo, scoping meeting and signed engagement are different business stages; this edition does not publish an AOV benchmark for auditing services.

KPMG describes Ready for Assurance as assessing whether preconditions and evidence for a future sustainability-assurance engagement are present. State that readiness scope rather than imply an issued assurance conclusion. A readiness-project inquiry and a completed assurance engagement are different offers and should not share an undifferentiated conversion label.
