Compliance and asset registers in Kenya

No. We manufacture asset tags and carry out tagging, verification and register-building services. We work to the record-keeping standards your auditors or Treasury guidance require, but we do not issue audit opinions or legal compliance certification ourselves. For statutory sign-off you still need your own auditor or accounting officer.

No single step does. Tagging gives every asset a unique, durable identifier that a register can reference, which addresses one of the most common audit findings. Compliance also depends on your register's completeness, valuation basis and reconciliation process, which are your organisation's responsibility, not ours.

Yes. Private companies, NGOs, schools, hospitals and SACCOs all face similar pressure from auditors, donors or lenders to prove asset existence and condition. The underlying method, unique identifiers plus a reconciled register, is the same regardless of sector.

The public sector page explains the statutory and Treasury basis for asset registers in national and county government. The tender documents page lists what we hold as a supplier, incorporation, tax and permit documents, so procurement officers can screen us before reading a technical proposal.

Yes, that is one of our most common engagements. We carry out a verification exercise against your existing register, tag or re-tag as needed, and produce a reconciliation showing matches, exceptions and untagged items, which you can present directly to your auditor.

No, and you should be cautious of any tagging supplier who claims to. We describe the PFMA and Treasury guidance accurately so you understand the context for our work, but interpretation of statutory obligations for your specific entity is a matter for your legal or audit advisers.

That is normal at the start of most engagements and is exactly what a verification exercise is for. We physically check each asset against the register, flag mismatches, missing entries and phantom entries, and hand back a reconciled list rather than papering over the gap.

No. Barcode and QR tags meet the identification requirement for the vast majority of registers we build, including public sector ones reporting under IPSAS. RFID is a quote-only option worth considering for very high-volume verification or bulk sweeps, not a compliance requirement in itself, so most entities never need it.

If you are audited, hold donor funds, or borrow against fixed assets, yes, the same weaknesses (missing identifiers, group entries, no verification trail) get raised regardless of your size. If none of those apply, a basic register may be all you need.
