Enabling the most ethical brands

Support that stands up to scrutiny

Donations and sponsorships can create genuine social and community impact — but without clear oversight, they can raise questions about alignment, influence, and intent.

Without clear criteria for value, timing, and affiliation, contributions may appear politically or commercially motivated, weakening stakeholder confidence and exposing the organization to scrutiny.

SpeakUp® Paths

One place for every request

Centralize all requests from your entire organization. A single system delivers transparency for leadership, consistent application of policy, and a complete audit trail for external reporting—so everyone knows what’s being supported and why.

Clear, guided request intake

A short, step-by-step form helps submitters share what reviewers need on day one, reducing back-and-forth and speeding triage.

Alongside basic details, the form can capture brand/recognition expectations, any related sales activity, and attachments like proposals, invitations, or receipts.

Request type & purpose: donation, sponsorship, in-kind support; objective and expected outcomes.

Recipient & affiliations: organization details, charity/registration status, and any involvement of public officials or government bodies.

Contribution specifics: estimated value, cash vs. in-kind, timing/frequency, receiving/giving.

Right-sized review & due diligence

Review steps adjust based on risk — considering factors like deal value, proximity to tenders or sales, and applicable local rules (ABAC, lobbying, procurement, or pay-to-play restrictions).

Built-in guidance helps reviewers assess reputational risks and document the business rationale, while all stakeholder feedback stays in one place.

Policy & legal checks: confirm fit with corporate policy and applicable laws.

Risk assessment: diligence results, conflicts of interest, reputational considerations.

Evidence & input: supporting documents and recommendations from compliance, legal, finance, or regional leads.

Decisions you can defend

Standardized outcomes and clear rationale make decisions consistent and auditable.

When appropriate, approvals can include conditions, such as capping amounts, converting to in-kind, removing branding, or separating from active sales efforts, while required notifications and reports are tracked to completion.

Outcomes: approve, approve with conditions, or decline.

Rationale & references: decision reasons, policy links, diligence summary.

Follow-ups & reporting: assigned actions, deadlines, and evidence of completion.

Insight that shapes strategy

Interactive dashboards reveal trends by region, department, beneficiary type, public-official involvement, and total value; helping teams plan budgets, demonstrate impact, and evidence compliance to auditors and regulators.
