FAR PART 31

FAR Part 31 and CAS compliance, built for contractors who need to pass the first time.

FAR Part 31 isn't a checklist. It's the rulebook for which costs survive DCAA scrutiny. GovCon Interactive helps government contractors build accounting systems that keep every dollar traceable, allocable, and defensible — from cost-reimbursement readiness through full CAS-covered contracts.

CAS APPLICABILITY

Is your contract subject to CAS? Here is how to know.

CAS applicability depends on contract type, award value, and business unit status. GovCon Interactive determines which CAS clauses apply and builds the disclosure statement and cost accounting practices to match.

Cost accounting standards coverage determination document

Full vs. modified coverage

Full or modified CAS coverage is identified based on award type and value thresholds under 48 CFR 9903.

Preparing a CASB disclosure statement form

Disclosure statement (DS-2)

A CASB DS-2 is prepared from scratch, describing cost accounting practices in the language DCAA expects.

Cost accounting practice change analysis

Cost accounting practice changes

Every planned accounting change is evaluated to determine whether it triggers a CAS-compliant adjustment, with the impact on prior contracts documented.

Cost accounting standards gap analysis audit

CAS gap analysis

Current practices are audited against applicable CAS clauses and every gap is flagged before DCAA finds it.

Cost accounting standards exemption documentation

CAS exemption reviews

Contract qualification for CAS exemption is confirmed and the rationale is documented for the audit file.

COST ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

What CAS coverage applies to your contract portfolio?

CAS applicability depends on your contract value, award type, and funding source. We help you determine which CAS clauses apply and how to structure your accounting system to meet them efficiently.

WHAT WE DELIVER

DCAA-compliant accounting systems that pass SF 1408 review

We build the internal controls, cost structures, and documentation you need to win and perform on government contracts without corrective action plans.

FAR PART 31 COMPLIANCE

What federal cost principles require

Government contractors must establish policies and accounting procedures that comply with federal cost principles. Here is what that covers.

CAS COVERAGE

Modified vs. Full CAS coverage

Cost Accounting Standards establish uniform rules for estimating, accumulating, allocating, and reporting costs on covered government contracts. Coverage depends on award value and business unit status.

COMPLIANCE DELIVERABLES

What a FAR and CAS compliance engagement delivers

Every compliance engagement produces documentation that stands up to DCAA audit scrutiny. These are the core deliverables.
