Services
- Pre-Award Audit Preparation – If you are pursuing a cost-type or time-and-material contract, the pre-award accounting system audit is your first hurdle to overcome. Our team has developed cost-effective solutions to rapidly prepare and undergo an audit and can also support post-award ongoing compliance. We have had a zero-failure rate for pre-award accounting system audits for almost two decades.
- Post-Award Accounting System Audit Preparation – Post-award accounting audits are far more involved and time-consuming than pre-award audits, and our team helps you prepare and keep auditors on track. Before the audit, we can help conduct mock audits to get your team ready and identify weak spots. During the audit, we can help to understand requests and keep the auditor on the right track. If findings occur, we can support the development of corrective actions and help implement changes to your system.
- CPSR Audits – The Contractor Purchasing System Review is often the first business system encountered after the accounting area. Our team is adept at understanding large and small business purchasing requirements and implementing solutions for adequacy and efficiency. We maintain training courses, policies, and procedures to support audit preparation and rapid implementation of corrective actions to prepare for an audit.
- Incurred Cost Proposal Audits – Our team prepares, reviews, and supports over 100 ICES-related engagements annually and has a two-decade track record of success.

We support final indirect rate negotiation and agreement and are subject matter experts in determining final costs/contract closeout.

We support large and small businesses in developing efficient and compliant property management processes for audit.
