Core Services
Three Pillars. One Integrated Practice.
Every service we provide falls within one of three strategic pillars — each designed to address a critical dimension of organizational sustainability and compliance.
1
Funding Strategy
2
Budget Development
3
Financial & Compliance
Funding Strategy
We help organizations build the infrastructure, positioning, and strategy needed to identify, pursue, and secure the funding that sustains their mission. From researching the right opportunities to strengthening grant writing capacity, this pillar is built for organizations ready to compete at a higher level.
Grant Readiness
Assess and strengthen your organization's capacity to pursue and win grant funding through a structured readiness framework.
Funding Planning
Develop a multi-source funding plan that diversifies revenue, reduces dependency, and builds long-term financial sustainability.
Budget Development
Sound budgeting is foundational to grant compliance and organizational credibility. We help organizations build budgets that are not only accurate and funder-aligned but that also reflect the true cost of delivering high-quality programs and services.
Grant Budgets
Develop compliant, well-structured grant budgets with appropriate cost allocations, narratives, and funder-required formats.
Budget Revisions
Navigate budget revision requests from funders with accurate documentation, justifications, and approval-ready submissions.
Budget Modifications
Manage mid-project budget modifications to reflect changing organizational needs while maintaining funder compliance.
Cost Allocation
Establish defensible cost allocation methodologies that properly distribute shared costs across programs and funding sources.
Financial Planning
Build integrated financial plans that align operational budgets with strategic goals and funder requirements for long-term stability.
Financial & Compliance Strategies
Compliance is not a checkbox — it is a continuous discipline. This pillar delivers the systems, monitoring frameworks, and technical expertise organizations need to maintain accountability, satisfy auditors, and protect their funding relationships over the long term.
Grant Compliance
Ensure every grant dollar is managed, documented, and reported in strict accordance with federal, state, and funder requirements.
Financial Reporting
Produce accurate, timely financial reports that satisfy funder expectations and provide leadership with actionable fiscal insights.
PPR / PFR Reporting
Manage programmatic and fiscal progress reports with precision, ensuring all deliverables, expenditures, and outcomes are properly documented.
Monitoring Preparation
Prepare your organization for funder site visits and desk reviews with complete documentation packages and staff readiness training.
Audit Readiness
Strengthen internal records, controls, and documentation to approach every audit — A-133, program, or financial — with confidence.
Internal Controls
Design and implement internal control frameworks that protect organizational assets and satisfy funder accountability standards.
Technical Assistance
Hands-on technical support for staff, leadership, and boards navigating complex compliance requirements and grant management challenges.

Client Success Stories
What Our Clients Say
Real results from real organizations — across sectors, sizes, and stages of growth.
Funded & Compliant™ transformed how we manage our federal grants. We passed our first-ever A-133 audit with zero findings — something we couldn't have imagined before working with their team. The ROI on our engagement was immediate and measurable.
We were struggling with a complex federal compliance issue that had us at risk of losing a $1.2M grant. Within 60 days, the team not only resolved the issue but built us a system that will prevent it from ever happening again. Exceptional expertise.
Their grant readiness program helped us secure three new government contracts totaling over $800K in our first year. The strategic guidance, document templates, and coaching were exactly what our small team needed to compete at a higher level.
