For businesses working in the government contracting space, success isn’t just about providing excellent products or services — it’s about meeting complex compliance standards and maintaining financial discipline. Government agencies require strict adherence to DCAA, FAR, CAS, and ESG guidelines. Without proper compliance, contractors risk audit failures, financial penalties, and even contract termination.
At PWCPA PC, we help government contractors navigate these complexities with confidence. Our team ensures that your financial operations are compliant, efficient, and structured for long-term profitability and success.
The Compliance Challenges Contractors Face
Government contractors face unique challenges that go far beyond typical accounting tasks. These challenges include:
DCAA Compliance: Proper cost allocation, timekeeping, and documentation are essential for audit readiness. Even small errors can lead to disallowed costs or penalties.
Cost Recovery: Many businesses fail to properly recover allowable fringe, overhead, and G&A costs, leaving revenue on the table and risking compliance violations.
Audit Preparation: Federal audits require complete and accurate financial documentation. Being unprepared can result in lost contracts and reputational damage.
ESG Reporting: Agencies increasingly favor contractors who show a commitment to sustainability, social responsibility, and ethical governance.
Without expert guidance, these challenges can quickly become roadblocks to growth.
