❋ A STRUCTURED REVIEW OF YOUR GRANT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
Post-Award Systems Diagnostic
The Post-Award Systems Diagnostic is a structured compliance and systems review designed for organizations managing government-funded grants.
This engagement provides an independent assessment of your post-award infrastructure, identifying gaps in internal controls, documentation practices, reporting alignment, and overall compliance readiness.
Rather than reacting to monitoring findings or audit feedback, this diagnostic allows your organization to proactively strengthen systems before external oversight occurs.
❋ WHY THIS MATTERS
Organizations often focus heavily on securing grant funding, but the systems required to manage that funding are equally important.
Without strong post-award structures, organizations may face:
Audit readiness gaps
Documentation inconsistencies
Reporting misalignment
Internal control weaknesses
Increased compliance risk
This diagnostic provides clarity on where your systems stand today — and what needs to be strengthened moving forward.
This is a comprehensive review of your organization’s current grant management systems
The engagement includes:
Comprehensive review of grant management practices
