Governance & stewardship

Responsible decisions. Clear accountability.

Our governance standards guide project review, resource use, conflicts of interest, and the long-term care of the systems we help build.

Board governance

Directors are responsible for the organization’s direction, oversight, and long-term interests. Griffin Vanguard has no statutory members.

Financial separation

Nonprofit resources, decisions, and records remain separate from related commercial activity.

Conflict controls

Related-party work is subject to disclosure, review, documentation, and safeguards appropriate to the decision.

Documented procurement

Technology costs and purchasing decisions should be understandable, supportable, and tied to actual program need.

Zero-margin partner products

Eligible third-party partner technology supplied through Griffin Technology Partners is documented at acquisition cost and carries no transaction-specific markup.

Sustainable handoff

Ownership, credentials, documentation, portability, security, operating cost, data access, backups, and training are considered throughout the work.

Your organization keeps control.

A successful handoff leaves your team able to understand its systems, access its data, manage accounts, plan for costs, and choose what happens next.
