The core engagement
Startup grant use-of-funds audit
For founders who have started spending a grant, programme managers closing a funding round, or teams preparing a milestone report. We trace expenditure to the approved purpose and flag unsupported, misclassified or out-of-period items.
Review the full scopeGather
Grant agreement, approved budget, bank statements, invoices and proof of payment.
Trace
Each sampled transaction is tied to its supporting record and permitted budget line.
Resolve
You receive a queries schedule before findings are finalised, so context is not lost.
Report
A clear use-of-funds report records exceptions, responses and practical corrections.
“The review found two supplier payments sitting under the wrong budget line. The questions were exact, and we corrected the schedule before our milestone submission.”— Naledi M., food manufacturing founder
Calm scrutiny
No blame. No vague assurances.
We ask for evidence, record what it shows and distinguish a filing gap from genuinely ineligible expenditure. That difference matters to founders and funders alike.
