Fortune 100 company requires assurance to meet EPA guidelines
A Fortune 100 multinational technology company engaged Baker Tilly to conduct an agreed-upon procedures (AUP) report on their hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) usage to comply with EPA guidelines.
Client background
A leading technology company required an agreed-upon procedures (AUP) report to verify their hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) usage against internal records due to the new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations on HFC allowances.
Client need
As a company relying on the ability to provide leading-edge technology, they require the use of extensive research and development (R&D) in operations. Part of this R&D requires the use of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), a regulated synthetic compound that has a negative impact on the environment. The use of HFCs now requires allowances from the EPA to use due to their harmful impact on the environment. The client required an AUP report to get an external look at whether their reported values are consistent with what was on internal records.
