Frequently Asked Questions
The recommended approach is to begin the documentary diagnosis 3 to 6 months before the official handover date. This allows time to identify missing files, reconcile bank accounts with the Treasury and prepare inventories with enough time to correct irregularities without pressure. In SLP municipalities, the legal deadline is up to 30 business days from the formal start, but the quality of the process depends on early preparation.
The ÓSFAE has up to 10 years to impose administrative liability on public servants. If you receive an audit observation notice, you have a non-extendable deadline of 20 business days to respond with supporting documentation. If not resolved in time and form, the notice can escalate to a sanctioning administrative liability proceeding. Our team handles these proceedings from the first notification.
No. A direct award is only legal when the contract amount falls below the threshold established in the municipality's or federation's Budget of Expenditures, or in exceptional cases provided by the LAASSP (urgency, exclusivity, national security). Using it outside these circumstances is one of the most common irregularities flagged by the ÓSFAE and may result in administrative or criminal liability.
Yes, under certain circumstances. The síndico has a legal obligation to oversee expenditure and report irregularities. If they knew (or should have known) of an irregularity and failed to act, they may be subject to joint liability. For this reason, it is essential that the síndico keep a record of their oversight actions and issue formal opinions whenever potential irregularities are detected.
The cost depends on the size of the municipality, the complexity of its public finances and the state of documentation at the start of the process. We work with fixed project fees or monthly retainer arrangements during the transition. Contact us for a concrete proposal.
Yes. We have advised governments in Chiapas, Sonora and Coahuila, as well as municipalities in Guanajuato and Querétaro. Our team can travel on-site or coordinate processes remotely, depending on the client's needs.
