Our Mission
“As Clients Prosper, We Prosper™. Our mission is to provide contractors, large and small, with the resources necessary to intelligently manage and comply with government contracting requirements while allowing the contractor to make astute clear business decisions that address the client’s own mission and prosperity.
This is only possible by communicating compliance and accounting information clearly and accurately. Compliance and accounting information is worthless if it is not understood by the business decision makers and business employees: each responsible for the business’ success and compliance.

After service in the Army and graduating college, Steve began work as a divisional director for a small company with government contracts.

This led Steve to the CPA and launching his own practice specializing in government contracting accounting and compliance.
