ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of April 2, 2021. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of April 2, 2021, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
On December 31, 2020, we completed our acquisitions of HHB and Zenetex. We are in the process of integrating HHB's and Zenetex's financial reporting processes and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting into our financial reporting processes, procedures and internal controls. In the course of integrating HHB's and Zenetex's financial reporting processes and procedures with ours, we may implement changes to financial reporting processes and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting and will disclose any such changes, if material, as required by the rules of the SEC. Management intends to complete its assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting for the acquired businesses within one year of the date of the acquisitions.
We substantially completed the implementation of our new Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system during our fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2021. The implementation of that ERP system is expected to, among other things, improve user access security and automate a number of accounting, back office and reporting processes and activities, thereby decreasing the amount of manual processes previously required. Except for the matters noted above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period ended April 2, 2021, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
