Landing a government contract is a significant achievement but keeping that contract and growing your opportunities within the federal space? That’s where the real work begins.
Government contractors face unique financial and regulatory challenges that traditional bookkeeping simply can’t cover. From DCAA audits to indirect cost recovery, timekeeping compliance, and now ESG reporting, the financial demands of government work require more than just accuracy they require strategy.
At PWCPA PC, we don’t just “keep your books.” We become your compliance ally, strategic partner, and financial foundation — so you can focus on delivering value while we make sure you stay audit-ready and growth-aligned.
Beyond Bookkeeping: What’s at Stake in Federal Compliance
In commercial business, a bookkeeping mistake might result in a corrected invoice. In government contracting, it can mean disallowed costs, payment delays, or even a lost contract.
Here’s what you’re really up against:
- DCAA audit requirements that demand precise records, defensible indirect cost rates, and clean timekeeping systems
- FAR and CAS rules that govern everything from pricing structure to cost allowability
- Internal controls and financial governance that must satisfy agency scrutiny
- ESG criteria increasingly tied to proposal evaluations and renewals
If your systems aren’t ready, the risks are real and so are the lost opportunities.
