ePlus inc. (NASDAQ NGS: PLUS – news) today announced that it has successfully completed the Type 2 SSAE 18 (Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements) examination, also commonly referred to as Service Organization and Controls (SOC 1) Report, for its Managed Services Center and OneSource family of software products that provide information technology acquisition, asset management, procurement, and catalog management software services. The Type 2 SSAE 18 examination, formerly known as SSAE 16, was performed in accordance with the standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA).

The SSAE 18 examination provides customers and auditors with an understanding that the description of services and solutions provided by ePlus are fairly presented and suitably designed. The Type 2 component of SSAE 18 provides an objective evaluation that ePlus’ controls were operating effectively during the specified period of the examination.

“Through this SSAE 18 independent examination, ePlus has again shown that our Managed Services Center delivery model is able to provide consistent, repeatable solutions to customers,” said Dan Farrell, senior vice president of global services for ePlus. “Security and operations optimization continue to be top of mind for organizations, and we are pleased to provide customers with actionable insight and professional technical support to maximize the return of their investments.”

“ePlus is proud to receive our 13th consecutive Independent Auditors Report for Type 2 SSAE 18. This achievement demonstrates our commitment to customers to establish the appropriate control objectives and activities to provide the proper benchmarking for the Type 2 SSAE 18,” said Ken Farber, president of ePlus Software.

The ePlus SSAE 18 report includes the service auditor’s opinion that:

  • The description provided by ePlus fairly presents the Managed Services Center system and OneSource family of software products that was designed and implemented throughout the period of August 1, 2018 to July 31, 2019.
  • The controls related to the control objectives stated in the description were suitably designed to provide reasonable assurance that the control objectives would be achieved if the controls operated effectively throughout the period of August 1, 2018 to July 31, 2019, and user entities applied the complementary user entity controls contemplated in the design of ePlus’ controls throughout the period of August 1, 2018 to July 31, 2019.
  • The controls tested, which together with the complementary user entity controls referred to in the scope paragraph of the report, if operating effectively, were those necessary to provide reasonable assurance that the control objectives stated in the description were achieved, operated effectively throughout the period of August 1, 2018 to July 31, 2019.
