How We Work

A structured, four-phase engagement model built to protect your organisation at every step of the grant lifecycle.

1
Assess

We review your grant agreement, budget, internal controls and documentation to identify compliance gaps and risk areas before they become findings.

2
Plan

A tailored action plan is delivered — covering eligibility criteria, documentation requirements, reporting timelines and any donor-specific obligations.

3
Engage

We conduct the audit or grant management engagement — fully remote or on-site, coordinating directly with your team and the donor.

4
Report

Final deliverables include the audit report plus an improvement roadmap — actionable recommendations to strengthen your position for future grants.

Firm Experience

Built on 15+ years of hands-on engagements across multinational organisations — our team brings deep expertise in audit, grants management and financial compliance.

⚠️ The Cost of Getting It Wrong

One audit finding can undo years of programme work

International donors are legally required to recover ineligible expenditure. Without the right controls in place, your organisation is exposed — regardless of how well the programme performed.

10–20%
of grant budget typically at risk from disallowed costs in a failed audit
100%
of documented ineligible expenditure must be returned to the donor
0
second chances — a negative audit opinion affects your eligibility for future grants
