About this file
This document is a pre-award survey checklist for a prospective contractor's accounting system. It contains 22 questions for the contractor to answer regarding its accounting practices and compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation cost accounting standards. The questions address topics such as whether the contractor's accounting system has been audited by the Defense Contract Audit Agency, is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and provides for proper segregation and accumulation of direct and indirect costs. The contractor must provide explanatory narratives for each question and attach any relevant audit reports. This checklist appears to be part of a larger solicitation for training support services for the U.S. Army's Training Support Systems Enterprise program.
