Pre-Award Audit and Evaluation
Following authorization to negotiate a grant, DATEX requests the requisite information needed to determine grant worthiness and conduct a pre-award audit. Responsive applicants with a chance for award will be assessed for adequacy of financial systems, management policies, and ability in managing USAID grants. This includes an examination of the existence of satisfactory mechanisms of internal control. The DATEX Field Team will conduct a cost analysis of direct and indirect cost and a determination as to their reasonableness, allowability, and allocability.

The goal is of the Pre-Award Audit and Evaluation is to determine the ability of the organization to comply with USAID rules and regulations for the administration of grant monies. To reach a determination, DATEX carefully explores and documents several areas of the organization. These include:

  • Internal Control Structure

  • Accounting, Record-Keeping, and Overall Financial Management System

  • Personnel Policies and Procedures

  • Travel Policies

  • Procurement Policies, Procedures, and systems

  • Property Management Standards and System

After an assessment of these three areas is completed by DATEX's Financial Analyst, a report is provided to the Chief of Party so that all findings are documented.
