About this file
This document contains a Standard Form 1408, which is used to evaluate a prospective contractor's accounting system for a federal contract award. The form recommends that the contractor's accounting system is acceptable for award of the prospective contract. Key details include:
-
The prospective contractor's accounting system was found to properly segregate direct and indirect costs, identify and accumulate direct costs by contract, and exclude unallowable costs from charges to the government. It was also found to accumulate costs under general ledger control and support requests for progress payments.
-
While the accounting system was determined to be currently in full operation, the survey reviewing official recommended that a follow-on accounting system review be performed after contract award to ensure continued compliance.
-
The related federal contract opportunity is solicitation number W900KK-19-R-0006 from the Department of the Army to provide instrumentation solutions for test and evaluation. The solicitation was amended to answer additional industry questions, revise proposal instructions, incorporate a full contract clause, and extend the response deadline.
