Development Office Audits

Successful major fund-raising endeavors initiated by an organization requires high levels of professionalism, preparation, and coordination by development staff.

Unlike a Feasibility Study which tests the attitudes and perceptions of the institution’s “external” constituency, the Development Office Audit focuses “internally” on the workings of an institution’s Development Office.

A Development Office Audit is an objective, outside professional review evaluating strengths and weaknesses, and if necessary, making specific recommendations for increasing the effectiveness of the Office. An Audit is especially valuable before a capital campaign to ascertain "campaign readiness".
