Micro-Assessment Services for NGOs & Organizations
At Al-Touhaily Accounting and Auditing Office, we provide micro-assessment services tailored for NGOs, foundations, and donor-funded organizations. These targeted evaluations are designed to assess your internal control systems, compliance structures, and operational readiness, ensuring you’re well-prepared for donor funding, financial audits, and long-term institutional growth.
Our assessments are aligned with international donor expectations such as UN agencies, EU projects, USAID, and other institutional funders.

- Internal controls
- Financial and procurement systems
