The problem
The audit is the easy part.
The hard part is everything between audits. Finance teams are small, the rules are dense, and a finding can put future funding at risk.
Single audit threshold
$1,000,000
Expend this much in federal awards in a fiscal year and a single audit is mandatory.
2 CFR 200.501Cost allowability decisionsEvery charge has to be allowable, allocable, reasonable, and documented.
Subrecipient monitoringRisk assessments, reviews, and follow-up for every pass-through dollar.
Procurement documentationQuotes, bids, and cost analysis that match the dollar thresholds.
SF-425 reportingFederal financial reports that tie back to the general ledger.
Evidence, organizedSo your team finds the gaps before the auditor finds them for you.

20 min · no prep needed - 02
A readiness review

Why Federal Grant Ready
Built for the in-between.
That is where findings are actually created or prevented.
The months that matter
Findings come from decisions made in July, October, and February. We work in those months, so fieldwork is a formality.
Independent from your auditor
We can do the advisory work your audit firm is not allowed to do under independence rules.
AI tests. CPAs sign.
AI does the sampling, testing, and documentation. Experienced CPAs make the judgment calls and sign off.
Generally allowable to your awards
Grant compliance and audit costs are generally allowable charges to federal awards.
2 CFR 200.425Confirm with your awarding agency.
Who it is for
For the people who sign off.
Nonprofits and state pass-through entities that expend roughly $3 million or more a year in federal awards.
Your role
CFOControllerFinance directorGrants managerPass-through program lead
If you are the person the auditor emails first, this is built for you.
You are likely facing
- A single audit, and no one owns readiness between now and fieldwork.
- A new large award with requirements your current process was not built for.
- A finding you cannot afford to repeat.
Get started
Keep the funding. Skip the findings.
Twenty minutes is enough to know whether your next single audit is a formality or a risk. Tell us what you need in one line and we will take it from there.
