The expertise

Built for the complexity behind the award.

We turn financial, compliance, reporting, documentation, and monitoring requirements into practical systems, controls, and processes that work.

Cross-Funder ExperienceExperience across federal and state funding, including pass-through, formula, and discretionary awards, supported by specialized grant management training and certification.
Compliance ExpertiseWe apply Uniform Guidance and award-specific requirements to the practical decisions, controls, documentation, and systems that shape post-award management.
Integrated Post-Award ApproachWe connect financial oversight, compliance, documentation, reporting, monitoring readiness, and closeout so each function supports the others.
The compliance framework

Every award comes with its own requirements.

We work from the requirements that govern each award, not one regulation in isolation.

Uniform Guidance — 2 CFR Part 200Core federal requirements for award administration, costs, internal controls, procurement, subrecipient management, records, monitoring, closeout, and audit requirements when applicable.
Program & Agency RequirementsProgram statutes and regulations, agency guidance, financial guides, award terms, special conditions, and other funder-specific requirements.
Pass-Through Entity RequirementsRequirements established through subawards, agreements, reporting instructions, monitoring protocols, and other pass-through conditions.
Award Documents & Approved PlansNotices of award, approved applications, budgets, program plans, amendments, and other documents that define the authorized award.
Internal ControlsInternal control principles, including the GAO Green Book when applicable or adopted, used to strengthen accountability, risk management, documentation, and grant operations.
