MyWorkpapers and Chartered Accountants Ireland announce strategic partnership to transform accounting technology

Mar 28, 2025

MyWorkpapers by Bright, a leading provider of cloud-based working papers for accountants, and Chartered Accountants Ireland, the largest professional body on the island of Ireland have agreed a partnership to drive the digital transformation of the Irish accounting sector, enabling professionals to stay ahead of the curve with cutting-edge tools and streamlined processes.

Backed by Bright Software Group this partnership brings a host of technological advancements designed to optimise the work of chartered accountants, offering solutions that improve efficiency, compliance, and collaboration.

Key Benefits for accountants and auditors

Technological Advantages

Boosted Efficiency:

  • Digitised workflows and automated manual processes
  • Streamlined compliance tasks with standardised templates
  • Seamless integrations across accounting systems
  • Real-time collaboration and comprehensive digital audit trails

With MyWorkpapers, chartered accountants and auditors across the island of Ireland can now automate routine tasks, reduce errors, and enhance productivity—all while ensuring compliance with the latest regulatory standards.

Regulatory Support

Staying Ahead of Regulations:

  • Up-to-date local legislation insights
  • Region-specific tax and financial regulation updates
  • Compliance standard alignment

The partnership ensures that industry professionals can stay well-informed of evolving regulations, helping them maintain compliance with ease.

Platform Capabilities

The integrated MyWorkpapers platform now offers:

  • Templates based on the Chartered Accountants Ireland Procedures for Quality Audit (PQAs) and Audit Exempt programme
  • Localised legislative checklists for up-to-date regulatory compliance
  • Methodology-specific workflows designed to enhance accuracy and efficiency
  • Automated compliance tracking for seamless reporting


Conal Kennedy, Head of Practice Consulting, Chartered Accountants Ireland said

“For many years, our Excel-based PQAs and Audit Exempt packages have been very popular with our members in practice. We are delighted now to offer this choice to members, which will shorten the learning curve by allowing them to use familiar templates and work programs from the existing packages and will give them the extra functionality of the MyWorkpapers platform. Anyone involved in statutory audit or accounts preparation in either the Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland should take a look at this.”


Ben Bishop, Bright’s Chief Product and Technology Officer, said

“This partnership allows us to deliver a digitised and rules-driven version of the guidelines directly in line with the work being undertaken by the accountant. Helping to ensure high quality, compliant and repeatable output every time; the digitally delivered updates will help keep practice staff on point with any changes to process or compliance. Together, we are empowering accounting professionals to deliver even greater value to their clients while staying compliant and ahead of industry trends. As part of the Bright family, MyWorkpapers continues to drive innovation in the accounting sector, offering solutions that evolve with the needs of modern accountants.”
