Scope, evidence and review

How FST scopes, prepares and reviews multidisciplinary work.

FST matches each request to defined accounting, tax, audit, governance, advisory or funding deliverables, required evidence and the responsible professional route.

Read the whole situation

We establish the decision, constraints, owners and available evidence before proposing a workstream.

Work across boundaries

The plan keeps audit, tax, reporting, controls, corporate requirements and financing dependencies in one view.

Leave an executable route

Outputs identify what must happen, who owns it, what evidence is needed and how progress will be reviewed.

The connected file

No hand-off gaps between services.

A plan affects cash. Cash affects finance. Structure affects tax and governance. Funding rules affect budgets and delivery evidence. FST keeps those links visible, so each workstream strengthens the others.

FST operates within the IKANISA portfolio and uses IKANISA’s supervised professional AI-agent infrastructure. The contracting provider and responsible professional remain identified separately for each engagement.
