Internal Controls & Compliance Infrastructure
Consistently applied policies and systems form the bedrock of successful federal operations. Akiri Consulting designs and implements robust internal controls that meet the rigorous standards of the FAR, DFARS, and 2 CFR 200. We transform compliance risk into operational excellence, ensuring your organization can demonstrate the Evidence of Responsibility required to win new awards and survive federal audits.
​
Absent written policies, an organization is vulnerable to wasteful resource use and audit disallowances. Akiri specializes in drafting tailored Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that satisfy federal regulators while remaining practical for your day-to-day team.
​
Drafting Regulatory-Compliant Policies
We develop comprehensive policy manuals for accounting, procurement, business ethics and conduct, fringe benefits, allowances and relocation, and travel. Alternatively, clients may purchase our off-the-shelf templates.
​
Demonstrating Evidence of Responsibility
A key factor in federal award decisions is a contractor’s "Responsibility." We help you build the internal documentation - from financial capability to ethical codes of conduct - that proves to Contracting Officers that your organization is a low-risk, highly capable partner.

System Design & Policy Development
Audit Mitigation & Ethical Oversight
Weak internal controls have historically cost contractors millions in returned funds. We act as your proactive defense, identifying and remediating gaps in your systems before they become findings in a formal government audit.
​
Audit Remediation & Risk Assessment
We conduct internal "Health Checks" to find the hidden risks in your systems. If you have already faced an audit with findings, we provide the technical expertise to draft Corrective Action Plans (CAPs) and implement the controls necessary to restore your "Approved" system status.
​
Preventing Waste, Fraud, and Abuse
Compliance is more than just paperwork; it is about culture. We help you implement the monitoring systems and "Segregation of Duties" required to prevent the unethical behavior that leads to award termination or debarment.
