Small government contractors running QuickBooks need a specific set of monthly financial reports to monitor profitability, indirect rate variance, and DCAA compliance. Amerifusion Bookkeeping breaks down the 8 reports, the KPIs inside each one, and the warning signs that signal trouble before an auditor does.

New government contractors repeat the same accounting mistakes year after year. Each one inflates billings, triggers audit findings, or disqualifies the contractor from cost-reimbursable work entirely. Amerifusion Bookkeeping identifies the seven costliest errors and how to fix them before DCAA arrives.

The SF 1408 pre-award survey determines whether your accounting system qualifies for cost-type government contracts. This guide covers all 14 evaluation criteria, 5 common failure points, and a preparation checklist.

Winning a government contract changes your accounting obligations overnight. The federal government requires a different financial system than commercial work, and the penalties for non-compliance hit your revenue directly.
