ERP data and control evidence for an SGX readiness programme
MTC turns the IPO programme’s financial-reporting, internal-control and risk requirements into SAP workflows, access controls, traceable data and repeatable test evidence, coordinated with the board, audit committee and professional workstreams.
- Transaction evidenceTrace source, approval and change historyLogs and authorisations must be configured and tested
- Control executionTurn policy into testable system behaviourHuman oversight and independent review remain necessary
- Remediation statusTrack gaps, owners, evidence and retestingPlace ERP remediation within the wider IPO-readiness programme
MTC organises ERP remediation and evidence into work packages that the company, sponsor, auditors and legal advisers can review against the current SGX route and programme requirements.
IPO readiness requires an ERP foundation that will operate after listing
Product selection should cover transaction volume, entities, financial reporting, access, evidence retention and migration rather than creating a temporary system solely for the listing project.
