BUSINESS CONCEPT #327 - THE MAURI ACCOUNTANT
A professional accounting and forensic auditing firm reframing financial management through the Mauri Model to measure life force alongside capital.
Executive Summary
The Mauri Accountant is a specialised professional services firm in Te Tai Tokerau that provides forensic accounting, strategic advisory, and auditing based on the Mauri Model. We serve businesses, Iwi authorities, and government agencies by measuring the "Binding Life Force" of their operations, ensuring financial viability does not come at the expense of our whenua or our people.
The Problem & Solution
The Problem: Traditional accounting suffers from the Newtonian Error, treating a business as a separate machine and ignoring the "externalities" of environmental and social debt. This high-entropy approach creates a Leaky Bucket where money is made while the region’s Mauri is drained.
The Solution: We provide the Universal Explainer for regional wealth. By using the Mauri Model's four dimensions—Taiao, Ahurea, Tangata, and Pūtea—we provide an integer-based score (-2 to +2) for every activity. This ensures that "profit" is only recognised if the life force of the system is in a state of Mauri Ora.
Target Market
Iwi and Hapū Trust Boards: Organisations requiring culturally valid metrics to assess the impact of their investments on their people and land.
Regenerative Enterprises: Businesses within the Economic Pā network (e.g., Ngāwhā Innovation Park) seeking to validate their "negentropic" impact.
Ethical Global Investors: Funds looking for high-fidelity "Impact Data" that goes beyond standard, hollow ESG claims.
Unique Value Proposition (UVP)
We offer "Forensic Mauri Auditing." While others count coins, we count connections. We are the only firm in Aotearoa that can mathematically demonstrate how a financial decision impacts the Quantum Whakapapa Nexus of your organisation, ensuring you never trade off a -2 in Taiao for a +2 in Pūtea.
