Grant audit
Independent assurance that strengthens confidence in grant funding and governance.
In today’s highly regulated grant funding environment, both awarding bodies and grant recipients face increasing challenges around cost accuracy, audit reliability, compliance with grant terms and effective governance.
At Forvis Mazars, we deliver comprehensive grant audit services for awarding bodies and funding recipients across sectors such as higher education, science, research and development, peace and reconciliation, health, transport and other publicly and privately funded programmes.
Our approach
Our dedicated grant audit team, which forms part of our wider audit and assurance practice, brings deep experience across national and international funding programmes.
We apply a tailored, risk-based approach that reflects the nature, scale and complexity of each grant scheme. Working closely with funders and recipients, we help identify and address risks, strengthen controls and support transparent, accountable use of public and private funds.
Contact us
Contact our grant audit specialists today to discuss how we can support compliance, transparency and effective governance across your funding programmes.
