A nonprofit often coordinates evidence from partners with different tools and reporting practices. Signed records help establish who supplied a report and which version was reviewed.

## Grant-making foundations: Trace a partner’s progress report

Funders may receive revised reports without a clear record of what changed.

### What to record

Record report fingerprints, grant references, the submitting partner, and review outcomes for each reporting period.

### What to review

Check the submitted version and supporting references before the program team accepts the report or asks for clarification.

### The outcome

A shared reporting history between funders and delivery partners.

## Volunteer organizations: Make volunteer training records checkable

Teams repeatedly request evidence of training when volunteers move between programs.

### What to record

Issue signed completion records with the training provider, course details, and managed record status.

### What to review

Check the credential’s issuer and status while applying the program’s separate safeguarding and suitability checks.

### The outcome

Portable training evidence for volunteers and the teams that coordinate them.

## Humanitarian programs: Record a program delivery handoff

Supplies and reports move between partners, leaving unclear responsibility for a handoff.

### What to record

Capture the delivery reference, declared contents, sending and receiving source references, and supporting document fingerprints.

### What to review

Compare the receipt with partner reports and investigate discrepancies through field verification procedures.

### The outcome

A recorded handoff that supports review without claiming to prove physical delivery by itself.

## Before you begin

Choose a reporting workflow and agree on evidence fields with partners. Protect beneficiary information and use existing processes to assess program outcomes.
