Partner Due Diligence & Readiness Pack
We provide a structured assessment of local partners’ governance, compliance, and operational systems, enabling donors to fund confidently and strengthen localization through practical capacity development.
Localization beyond rhetoric
Donors pledge to make aid “as local as possible,” yet funding still bypasses grassroots actors. The barrier is rarely intent—it’s systems. Without credible compliance, governance, and risk management structures, even strong local organizations remain excluded. The Partner Due Diligence & Readiness Pack is IREGS World’s fixed-price solution that equips local NGOs, CSOs, and firms with the documentation and pathways needed to access funding and build trust.
What it is
A decision-ready package that delivers a standardized compliance profile (“Due Diligence Passport”), risk assessment, and a capacity plan—so local actors become credible, donor-ready partners.
What it delivers
- Due Diligence Passport – core dossier aligned to donor requirements, covering: legal/registration status; governance & leadership overview; safeguarding & HR basics; financial transparency (audits/banking); procurement & operations snapshot.
- Governance & Compliance Checklist – registration, safeguarding, financial controls, HR, procurement.
- Risk Readiness Review – traffic-light assessment across fiduciary, legal, reputational, and operational domains.
- Capacity Action Plan – 90-day roadmap to close gaps (policies, procedures, training).
