DCAA Audit Readiness Review
Most companies find out their accounting system is non-compliant only when DCAA shows up. By then, the damage is already done - findings delay contract awards, trigger closer scrutiny on future proposals, and in serious cases result in disallowed costs and financial recovery. Our Audit Readiness Review works the other way: we examine your financial systems the way DCAA would, find the gaps, and help you close them before they become findings.
What We Do
- Simulate a DCAA pre-award accounting system survey across 18 key evaluation criteria
- Review your timekeeping system, labor distribution, and floor check readiness
- Assess indirect cost pool structure, allocation bases, and rate computation logic
- Identify documentation gaps that would trigger DCAA findings
- Deliver a clear, prioritized gap report with specific corrective actions
What You Get
- An honest, independent view of your compliance posture - before DCAA sees it
- A written gap report identifying high-risk areas with recommendations
- Prioritized action plan ranked by audit risk and effort to remediate
- Confidence to enter a DCAA audit or pre-award survey without surprises
- Stronger internal controls and audit documentation going forward
Key Outcome
You walk into your DCAA audit knowing exactly where you stand. The high-risk gaps have been identified and addressed. Your accounting system has passed an independent test run – so the actual audit holds fewer surprises and fewer findings.
Best suited for
- Companies expecting a DCAA pre-award survey in the near term
- Firms with prior audit findings or compliance concerns
- Businesses that have never had a DCAA evaluation
- Organizations scaling into larger federal contracts
