Kearney & Company, P.C.

Kearney & Company, P.C., a certified public accounting firm headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor (95% of recent awards) delivering federal financial management, audit, and compliance services to civilian agencies, defense organizations, and inspectors general across the federal enterprise. The firm competes in the unrestricted federal marketplace without socioeconomic set-aside constraints, drawing from a substantial portfolio of indefinite delivery vehicles and blanket purchase agreements valued in the billions of dollars.

The firm's capability portfolio centers on financial statement audits, accounting system reviews, internal controls assessments, FISMA compliance auditing, incurred cost audits, enterprise risk management consulting, and payment integrity and fraud risk support. Representative work spans a $122.9 million Marine Corps audit remediation delivery order (FIAR FIP IV, through July 2027), a $75.0 million financial statement audit contract for a civilian agency through December 2029, and a $44.7 million program and budget analytics delivery order for the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) under OASIS (through August 2029). Recent activity includes financial system security and risk management support to HHS ($9.9 million, time and materials, through September 2028), financial reporting and analysis support to HHS ($28.1 million, through September 2030), and audit coordination and payment integrity services to HHS ($6.9 million, through September 2030). SCI-reported invoicing reached $143.7 million in FY2024 across 483 FTEs, with government-paid median hourly rates around $129.95/hr (10th percentile $21.26/hr, 90th percentile $296.58/hr). The firm's labor portfolio spans 36 GSA Schedule categories from IT clerical at $66.70/hr through senior management analysts and actuaries at $490.46/hr, with roles requiring bachelor's degrees for professional positions and no security clearance mandates.

Customer concentration is distributed across defense and civilian agencies. By award count, the top five customers account for 31% of awards: Social Security Administration (91 awards, $74.9 million), Department of State Office of the Inspector General (75 awards, $30.4 million), Defense Contract Audit Agency (56 awards, $14.5 million), NASA Shared Services Center (47 awards, $103.2 million), and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (45 awards, $61.3 million). Dollar concentration differs markedly—the top five by potential value ($3.1 billion combined) are led by DOD Washington Headquarters Service (17 awards, $1.8 billion in PRISM work), the Air Force (23 awards, $721.9 million), the Office of the Secretary of Defense (21 awards, $394.3 million), DHS Chief Financial Officer (16 awards, $390.5 million), and HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration (39 awards, $316.3 million). Tension between rankings reflects a mix of high-volume, lower-value Social Security Administration compliance work and concentrated, high-value defense financial management infrastructure contracts.

Kearney & Company holds a dominant position on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (429 task orders, $2.86 billion combined potential value) and the Professional Services Schedule (436 task orders, $1.21 billion). The firm's core IDVs include the OASIS+ Unrestricted contract with GSA (ceiling $999,999,999,999, through December 2029), the $1.8 billion Personnel and Readiness Infrastructure Support Management (PRISM) indefinite delivery vehicle with Washington Headquarters Service (through July 2026), the $797.8 million Financial Improvement and Audit Remediation Support Services (FIAR FIP IV) vehicle with the Department of the Navy, and several agency-specific BPAs ranging from $5 million to $200 million with the Coast Guard, Department of Defense Comptroller, HHS, Department of Labor, and DHS. The firm regularly places work under these vehicles—recent examples include a $32.6 million Air Force delivery order under FIAR FIP IV (audit response services, through February 2028) and a $44.7 million OUSD(C) delivery order under OASIS (program and budget analytics, through August 2029).

Activity has remained relatively stable at 55–66 awards per year over the past five years (FY2022–2026). Fifty-two awards with completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry $429.8 million in combined potential value and face recompete exposure. Recent activity includes multiple awards in June–July 2026 under HHS financial management support BPAs, Coast Guard FMO compliance work, and Defense enterprise accounting and management system functional management office support.

Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors represent 5% of total contractor hours on average, with 61 named subcontractors engaged over FY2022–FY2024. Named subs include women-owned (The Merit Group LLC, Red River Resources LLC as EDWOSB), service-disabled veteran-owned (Lynch Consultants LLC, DP George & Company LLC), 8(a)-certified (Risk Pro Solutions LLC, Redhawk Administrative Services LLC, Great Waters Federal), HUBZone (Redhawk), and small disadvantaged business firms (Woodgrove Solutions LLC, Advancia Aeronautics LLC). The vendor self-performed the majority of invoiced labor—in FY2024, 65 SCI-reportable prime contracts invoiced $143.7 million with 458 FTEs deployed; the firm's own workforce accounted for the substantial preponderance of delivery hours. The parent company is E.f. Kearney, LIMITED, also a for-profit CPA firm; the source indicates no other subsidiaries.

Kearney & Company competes full-and-open across most civilian agencies and unrestricted defense customers, with no recurring set-aside category footprint. The firm's positioning as a category-dominant provider of federal audit and financial management services—reflected in 482 awards classified under "Offices of Certified Public Accountants" and 407 under "Other Accounting Services" (both NAICS codes)—anchors its federal contracting model around GWACs, agency BPAs, and professional services schedules rather than small-business vehicles. Founded in 1985 according to award narratives, the firm has built a federal compliance and audit services practice scaled to the Department of Defense, civilian inspector general community, and civilian agency financial operations at the enterprise level.
