Public sector

Improving performance and increasing accountability

Across the globe, countries are moving towards leaner, more commercial, locally focused and responsive government and public sectors. At Grant Thornton, we are perfectly placed to help your organisation deliver this vision in the longer term.

We work with all types of agencies, including central and state government, local government, donors (including bilateral and multilateral international development organisations), autonomous agencies, public-sector units and public-private partnerships.

Why Grant Thornton

Grant Thornton professionals in more than 130 countries can work with you to help you appraise and deliver solutions more effectively, demonstrate transparency, improve controls and develop new infrastructure to support your economic development. We have four key service areas to support donors and public-sector entities:

• Operational efficiency
• Infrastructure
• Governance
• Audit

Our public sector teams are locally based and have first-hand experience of specific issues relevant to your organisation. Across our global organisation of member firms, we can draw on the experience of specialists across the developed and developing world.

We don’t believe in off-the-shelf solutions and we know that public-sector organisations are unique. Whatever your goals, we will work closely with you to truly understand your organisation, the resources at your disposal and the environment in which you operate.
