How engagements run
Review methodology
A plain-language walk through how Energy Cloud Digital applies app analytics and financial audit applications to nonprofit fund accountability.
Built for accountability, not product demos
Every engagement follows the same spine: understand the fund conditions, gather evidence from ledgers and applications, apply agreed procedures, then brief the people who must answer for the money. The neon visuals on this site are decoration; the work itself is paper, exports, interviews, and careful wording.
1. Fund scoping workshop
We list every restricted pot in scope, capture donor language that limits spend, and agree which periods matter. No analytics begin until this list is signed off by your finance contact.
2. Evidence & access protocol
You provide trial balances, grant agreements, voucher samples, and exports from tracking applications. We document who may view which files and how credentials are revoked at close-out.
3. Analytics applications
Where programme teams log activity in applications, we reconcile those exports to finance postings — looking for orphans, duplicates, cut-off errors, and fund-code drift.
4. Financial audit applications
Agreed audit procedures run against the ledger and supporting documents: vouching, cut-off, restriction tests, and management enquiry. Severity ratings favour donor and board visibility.
5. Findings memo & board briefing
You receive a written memo, a reconciliation map, and a briefing that a lay trustee can follow. Management responses are recorded before the pack is marked final.
