Meet Chris Harding, CPA, CFE, CIA

With deep experience in government auditing and public sector finance, I bring direct, hands-on knowledge to the challenges local governments face. I don’t just find problems; I partner with elected officials and management to design practical solutions that work for your specific entity.

Where We Can Help

Targeted Risk Reviews

We perform agreed-upon procedures (AUP) on high-risk operational areas to detect errors, fraud, and waste.

  • Purchasing Cards (P-Cards): Monitoring for split transactions, personal use, and missing receipts.
  • Fleet & Fuel: Analyzing fuel usage, vehicle assignments, and maintenance controls.
  • Payroll & Overtime: Verifying approval flows and overtime justification (Police/Fire/Public Works).
  • Cash Handling: Securing revenue streams in courts, recreation centers, and utilities.

Governance & Controls

Building the foundation for a transparent organization.

  • Segregation of Duties: Designing workflows so no single employee controls a financial transaction from start to finish.
  • Policy Development: Drafting clear policies for Procurement, Ethics, and Capital Assets.
  • Audit Committee Setup: Guiding Councils on charter creation and committee best practices.

Ready to strengthen your controls?
