Bourque Logistics Completes Annual SOC Audit

The Woodlands, Texas – November 2, 2022:

Bourque Logistics, the leader in North American industrial logistics systems for more than 30 years, is pleased to announce the completion of its annual SOC 2 Type 2 examination for its management of its customers’ security processes and controls related to their logistics platform for the Security Trust Services Category. Our SOC 2 Type 2 report provides transparency to our customers related to the internal controls, which support operations and compliance. We annually engage independent public accounting firm, Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P., to perform an examination in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements. The Bourque SOC 2 Type 2 report is available to verified parties upon request.

Since 2017, Bourque has completed this annual audit and has been able to demonstrate achievement based on the security criteria set forth by the AICPA. With ever-changing and increased risk seen throughout businesses today, it is vital to stay ahead of the risk and protect our client’s data and operations. This annual audit is critical for all rail industry parties, whose information is highly regulated, making the security of the platform paramount. We continue to build trust and remain transparent with respect to operations and processes.

“We are currently planning to ready a SOC 1 audit for our newest offering, TRANSPay® Services, which streamlines our client’s payment of freight, lease, maintenance, and tax invoices. An audit for a SOC 1 Type 1 report should be complete in 2023.”

—Steve Bourque, President of Bourque Logistics
