Anticipated Problems Based on our understanding of current facts and circumstances, and our understanding of pending or potential changes in generally accepted accounting principles and auditing standards, there are no anticipated potential problems of which we are aware. However, if any unanticipated problems are encountered during the engagement, we will be proactive in bringing any such matters to your attention and finding a mutually acceptable solution. We also ask that you be honest and forthright in communicating any problems you have with us or any particular person at the earliest possible date. We care very deeply about our clients and their success, and so we will do whatever is reasonably necessary to rectify any problems. Technical Issue and Technical Disagreement Resolution Rehmann has both informal and formal paths for resolving technical issues and disagreements that may impact a client. The Client Service Principal, who leads each service team, is responsible for identifying the appropriate experience needed to provide effective service. When a technical issue or disagreement requires additional consultation, the principal has two courses of action. First, our flexible, internal communication system enables principals to leverage the individual knowledge found throughout the Firm's offices. Through various mediums such as e-mail, our paperless document management system, and the Firm's intranet, professionals have easy access to subject matter experts with relevant industry or practice area experience. Should an extreme technical matter arise that requires a more formal consultation or dispute resolution, the Firm has established executive committees. These executive committees provide direction on emerging assurance and audit issues. The committees are flexible, allowing for immediate access, and the individuals who serve on these committees are considered the Firm's definitive experts. In fact, many committee members are recognized speakers or serve on related committees for state and national industry groups such as the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Florida Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In situations of dispute resolutions, any member of the engagement team who disagrees with the final resolution has the right to document their disagreement in the workpapers. Our Firm practices personal and responsive communication with our clients. No one in our Firm will dictate "from afar" problem resolutions without our clients having an opportunity to meet and carry on a dialogue face to face.
