FAR Contracts Consultants

U.S. Gov’t. contracts consultants, or FAR contracts consultants, seem to fall into two categories and two tiers. Multiple, national firms – generally based in the Metropolitan D.C. Area – target large-contractor clients. Fortune 200 companies in the Aerospace and Defense Industry seek consistency among divisions and U.S. Gov’t. contracts consultants, or FAR contracts consultants, who can orchestrate multiple projects at multiple geographic locations, at all times. Like national firms, a separate tier, of small firms, also provide guidance, recommendations, and advice to smaller contractors, subcontractors, and grantees.

Another category of small firms provide hands-on performance. These U.S. Gov’t. contracts consultants might, for example, bring in a team to prepare, liaise, and Exit Conference a Government audit or review – such as a Contractor Procurement System Review.

The advisory FAR contracts consultants work with management, so that the client staff can successfully prepare, liaise, and Exit Conference a Government audit or review.

Mahnke Consulting is a small business that recommends practices, internal controls, and specific process improvements – with the reasons for them. A small, advisory consultant can draft policies and procedures, forms and checklists, plus ICE submissions and cost-volume proposals. The final documents are the responsibility of client management. The goal of small, advisory FAR contracts consultants is to succeed so well, that the client no longer needs our services for that project. National firms typically have recurring and long-term projects at the same location. Hands-on performance teams of U.S. Gov’t. contracts consultants substitute for staff during subsequent Government audits at the same client.
