Post-award expenditure check
A post-disbursement check linking approved budget lines to invoices, bank evidence, delivery records and assets observed where required.
Request a written scopeFollow the money to the farm
This engagement addresses a different question from a pre-award audit: whether funds already released can be traced to approved expenditure and whether the acquired goods or completed work match the claim.
We reconcile disbursements to bank evidence, invoices, proof of payment, goods-received records and the approved cost schedule. Samples are selected by value and risk. A farm visit can confirm serial numbers, quantities, dimensions or physical completion where documentary evidence is not enough.
Reporting
Findings distinguish timing differences, missing support, budget reallocations, ineligible expenditure and indications requiring escalation. The report identifies the value affected and gives the recipient an opportunity to provide factual corrections before issue.
We do not conduct criminal investigations or recover funds. Suspected forgery, undisclosed related-party transactions or material diversion is documented and referred to the commissioning organisation under the engagement protocol.
