Presentation Slides Audit Process Overview
The rights of the Government to perform an audit are established by the terms and regulations incorporated into your agreement or contract. DCAA audits are trigged by a contracting officer’s or administrative contracting officer’s need for audit service to make decisions or regulatory requirements.
DCAA does not perform audits requested by a contractor. DCAA only performs audits based on a request or established need from a federal entity.
Each audit will have a different timeline based on many factors. Each DCAA auditor will perform a risk assessment to determine the scope of the audit. The time, length and duration of each audit will depend factors such as risk, materiality, and willingness of contractor to support the audit to name a few.
