Kpmg LLP

KPMG LLP Federal Services, the federal contracting division of KPMG LLP—one of the Big Four accounting and professional services firms—delivers comprehensive audit, financial management, risk management, and strategic advisory services to federal agencies as a large unrestricted prime contractor, with 93 percent of recent awards in a prime role across a portfolio approaching $94.3 billion in combined potential value. The vendor operates from McLean, Virginia headquarters and competes in full-and-open federal procurements without set-aside designations, serving 124 distinct customer agencies across civilian and defense sectors.

KPMG's federal capability portfolio centers on financial statement audits, Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA) compliance assessments, financial improvement and audit remediation support, human capital management modernization, enterprise data integration, zero trust architecture implementation, and strategic transformation advisory—concrete services grounded in a representative portfolio spanning audit services for the Army ($370 million), Federally-Facilitated Exchange oversight for CMS ($68 million), Joint Financial Operations and Systems Support for Transportation Command ($117.7 million), Marine Corps financial improvement and audit readiness support ($79.9 million), Defense Intelligence Systems Agency human capital management modernization ($68.3 million), and financial management transformation support across the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency ($27.4 million, sole-source award) and Defense Logistics Agency ($36.9 million for supply chain audit strategies). Recent work also includes data integration and reconciliation services for the Defense Security Cooperation Agency ($17.3 million) and Venezuela natural resources revenue transparency mechanism support for the State Department ($84.4 million).

Across SCI-reportable federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold, KPMG Federal Services invoiced $1.07 billion in combined FY2022–FY2024 activity: $353 million in FY2022 across 968 FTEs, $379.2 million in FY2023 across 965 FTEs, and $335.6 million in FY2024 across 941 FTEs. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI contracts span a median of $144.39 per hour, with 10th-percentile rates around $74.34 per hour and 90th-percentile senior labor pricing through $291.32 per hour. The vendor's GSA Schedule labor categories include roles from Business Analyst I ($93.39 per hour entry-level) through Program Director ($306.18 per hour) and Subject Matter Specialist 1 ($450.36 per hour senior expert), spanning bachelor's-level education requirements with no security-clearance posture in the GSA portfolio.

Customer concentration aligns toward major defense and civilian financial oversight agencies. The top five customers by award count—Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (72 awards, $289.1 million), Department of Justice Office of Inspector General (64 awards, $209.9 million), CMS (43 awards, $455.3 million), Department of Navy (25 awards, $1.65 billion), and NIH (23 awards, $205.4 million)—represent 35 percent of awards. The top five by dollar value paint a different picture: Department of Air Force Secretary ($2.5 billion across 12 awards), Air Force (with $1.87 billion across 9 awards), Navy ($1.65 billion), Marines ($556 million), and Office of the Secretary of Defense ($480.6 million) reflect KPMG's substantial footprint in large-dollar Department of Defense transformation and financial management modernization programs, though these represent only 7 percent of combined potential value given the vendor's 642-award portfolio span.

KPMG holds positions on multiple federal vehicle platforms, placing 446 task orders on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule ($6.17 billion combined potential value), 134 task orders under The Professional Services Schedule ($308.5 million), and 27 orders under the Air Force Strategic Transformation Support indefinite delivery vehicle ($468.2 million). The vendor also anchors significant single-award and multiple-award IDIQs: the $500 million Financial Management FIAR BPA with the Secretary of the Air Force, the $220 million Comptroller Mission Support BPA with the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense, the $99.998 million DHS OCFO financial management and operations BPA, the $92.5 million DLA Strategic Transformation and Enterprise Project Support BPA, the $91.9 billion DLA JETS 2.0 multiple-award IDIQ, the $150 million Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration accounting and financial management BPA, and OASIS+ Unrestricted multi-agency government-wide contract. The vendor also holds position on the $151 billion Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) MDA contract and the $1.8 billion Personnel and Readiness Infrastructure Support Management (PRISM) vehicle.

Activity trajectory shows growth from 63 awards in 2022 to 91 in 2024, then decline to 42 in 2025 and 24 year-to-date in 2026, reflecting the sample cutoff (July 15, 2026) and recent award concentration in large ceiling-value IDIQs rather than discrete task orders. Within the next twenty-four months, 69 awards carrying combined potential value of $1.04 billion face ultimate completion dates and recompete exposure.

Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors account for approximately 11 percent of total contractor hours, with 391 named subcontractor firms engaged—indicating KPMG primarily builds its own delivery teams while leveraging specialized sub-expertise for targeted workstreams. Named subcontractors span small business categories: SNS One Inc. (Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business) performs FISMA IT audit and vulnerability testing; Thinktek LLC (8(a) and SDVOSB) supports zero-trust and financial systems transformation; Michael Shannon Consulting LLC (small business ERP and financial management specialist) enables financial data integration; Infopact Inc. (8(a) and EDWOSB) delivers financial improvement and audit remediation; Woodgrove Solutions LLC (8(a) minority-owned) supports audit remediation and financial systems work; and Kforce Inc. (professional staffing) supplies systems engineering and IT modernization labor across multiple Defense contracts. Additional subs include Allmond & Co LLC (minority-owned small disadvantaged business, audit services), SPS Consulting LLC (minority-owned, audit support), and Silverthorne Advisory Group LLC (advanced analytics and enterprise risk management).

The vendor's structure reflects its parent: KPMG LLP Federal Services operates as a subsidiary of Kpmg Tax And Advisory Limited Liability Partnership, the global parent organization. KPMG's federal footprint remains concentrated in full-and-open civilian and defense financial management, audit compliance, transformation advisory, and IT modernization—domains where the Big Four accounting brand, established federal relationships, and capability maturity command premium pricing and volume-based customer concentration. Recent activity acceleration toward billion-dollar IDIQs and recompete challenges in 2025–2026 reflect competitive pressure on smaller task order work and increasing reliance on agency-held master vehicles to sustain federal revenue, consistent with sector consolidation patterns in the federal professional services market.
