Services for Georgia local government audit compliance
From first requirement check to DOAA confirmation, we support finance staff, clerks, and governing bodies through every stage of the annual audit or AUP cycle. We prepare your records and coordinate the engagement — your independent CPA firm still performs the audit itself.
Audit Requirement Assessment
We evaluate your population, expenditures, and federal award activity against O.C.G.A. § 36-81-7 and 2 CFR 200 to confirm whether you need a full audit, agreed-upon procedures, or a Single Audit — and flag it early enough to budget and plan.
Financial Statement Preparation
We prepare GAAP-basis government-wide and fund-level financial statements, note disclosures, and required supplementary information so your books are ready for fieldwork on day one.
SPLOST & Hotel/Motel Tax Schedules
We build the project-level SPLOST expenditure schedule and Hotel/Motel tax use-of-funds disclosure that Georgia law requires alongside your standard financial statements.
Single Audit (Uniform Guidance) Support
For entities expending $1,000,000 or more in federal awards, we prepare the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA), map programs to compliance requirements, and coordinate testing with your auditor.
Agreed-Upon Procedures Coordination
If you qualify for AUP in lieu of a full audit, we help your governing body formally elect it, prepare the required schedules, and coordinate with a CPA firm licensed to perform Georgia AUP engagements.
DOAA Filing & Deadline Management
We manage your DOAA portal submission, track the 180-day deadline, and maintain a compliance calendar across every fund and fiscal year so nothing slips through — including catching up on prior-year filings.
Year-round, not just audit season
Many finance teams only think about audit requirements a few months before the deadline. We work with clients throughout the year so records stay audit-ready continuously.
Monthly close & reconciliation support
Keep fund balances, capital assets, and grant draws reconciled monthly so year-end close takes days, not weeks.
Prior-year finding remediation
We help design and document corrective action plans for prior audit findings, which auditors and DOAA both expect to see resolved.
Budget-to-GAAP crosswalk
Bridge your legally adopted budget to GAAP-basis reporting so budgetary compliance schedules tie out cleanly.
Grant & SPLOST compliance monitoring
Track federal award spending against the Single Audit threshold and SPLOST project budgets throughout the year, not just at close.
Tell us where your fiscal year stands.
We’ll scope the right level of support — whether that’s a full engagement or a one-time filing catch-up.
