Professional auditor of VBA models
 

Hi All,

I've a slightly unusual question. A former colleague has had a
contractor build a customised excel model for him that is using a lot
of VBA. It seems a bit cumbersome to use and he suspects it might be a
poor piece of work but he's not a programmer himself so he doesn't
know for sure.

Can anyone therefore recommend a professional VBA auditer who might be
able to take a look a this model and assess how efficiently it's been
coded? My colleague needs to know whether he should commission further
work from the contractor.

Thanks in advance for any replies

But, be careful about how you evaluate the quality of the work done by your
current provider. They could have provided exactly what was asked for. The
evaluation should not be on how good the code is, but whether the code
accomplishes the purpose for which it was intended. When you start pitting
one consultant against the other, it could be cause more problems that it is
worth.
