Why This Matters

Compliance Protects Revenue

In federal contracting, financial discipline and compliance are inseparable. An accounting system that cannot properly segregate costs, track profitability by contract, or support audit-ready reporting creates operational and reputational risk. Compliance protects revenue. Financial clarity drives growth. You need both.

When systems break down,
consequences follow:

ï„‘

Disallowed costs

ï„‘

Withheld or delayed payments

ï„‘

Audit findings

ï„‘

Contract limitations

ï„‘

Damaged credibility with contracting officers

Compliance protects revenue. Financial clarity
drives growth. You need both.

What We Evaluate

A Two-Layer Financial &
Compliance Review

Our assessment evaluates your business in two integrated dimensions to ensure both performance strength and regulatory alignment.

1. Financial Infrastructure & Performance Review:

We ensure that your financial systems support sustainable federal growth. We assess:

  • Contract-level profitability visibility
  • Indirect rate structure (Fringe, Overhead, G&A)
  • Cash flow and billing processes
  • Revenue recognition practices
  • Operational workflow efficiency
  • Reporting reliability and scalability

2. DCAA Readiness & Federal Compliance Review:

We identify compliance gaps before they become audit findings. We evaluate:

  • Chart of accounts alignment for GovCon
  • Direct, indirect, and unallowable cost segregation
  • Timekeeping and labor distribution controls
  • FAR Part 31 cost allowability treatment
  • Indirect pool allocation methodology
  • Internal controls and documentation standards

Engagement Model

Standalone or Foundational

This assessment can be engaged as a standalone diagnostic.
However, for clients pursuing ongoing Fractional CFO services, this step is required.
Strategic financial leadership without understanding your baseline would be incomplete.
Before building forward, we assess where you stand today.

Who This Is For

Designed for Growth-Oriented Federal Contractors

This assessment is best suited for:
Z
Small to mid-sized federal contractors
Z
Companies transitioning into government work
Z
8(a), WOSB, SDVOSB, and HUBZone firms
Z
Contractors preparing for accounting system review
Z
Organizations experiencing billing delays or audit concerns
If federal revenue is part of your growth strategy, this assessment is foundational.
