We follow strict, proven procedures
The specialists at Vasquez analyze overhead rates and accounting systems, making certain that vendors are correctly aggregating and allocating costs, and including only allowed expenses. We are 100% objective, using very specific calculations to complete:
- Pre-award Audits to verify that information is an accurate, current, and complete description of the contractor’s practices and pricing. The results of the pre-award audit will be passed on to the contracting officer to provide additional information for negotiation purposes.
- Cost Incurred Audits to verify the allowability, allocability, and reasonableness of direct and indirect costs that have been charged and billed, especially in connection with cost-reimbursable contracts. Vasquez has identified reimbursable amounts ranging in the millions of dollars.
- Close-Out Audits, to verify that goods and services were provided after the contract is physically completed, which means the contractor has performed and the Government has accepted all services required by the contract, and the base period and any option periods exercised have expired.
