Internal audit is where problems are found while they are still cheap to fix. For an NGO the risk is rarely fraud on a large scale — it is far more often weak documentation that cannot support a claim two years later.
What we handle
- Review of controls over receipts, grants, payments and cash
- Procurement and vendor processes, including competitive selection records
- Payroll, consultant payments and statutory deductions
- Branch, chapter and field-office verification
- Grant-condition compliance — testing whether restricted funds were used as agreed
- Risk register and a prioritised action plan, not just a list of observations
How we work
We report by severity and give each finding an owner and a date. An internal audit report that lists forty equal-weight observations gets filed away; one that names the three things that could actually cost the organisation its funding gets acted on.
