Contract Audit and Consulting

Since 2003, BST Contract Audit and Consulting* has provided businesses, government and not-for-profit entities with knowledgeable, efficient and effective contract auditing and consulting services. The Group effectively combines the extensive experience and technical knowledge of our lead Partner, Thomas J. Goodfellow, CPA, MBA with the long history of grant and compliance audit work, advanced audit methods and client focus of BST. If you are a government agency (Federal, state, local, school district, public authority, economic development agency, etc.), architect/engineer, transit operator, airport manager, railroad, utility, contractor, or consultant we can help guide you in managing and monitoring your contracting, sub-contracting, and outsourcing activities going beyond the traditional pre-award, contract and overhead auditing.

You and your organization may also benefit from our training offerings. We have conducted numerous training sessions on Federal Cost Principles, Federal-aid Highway Program requirements, the AASHTO Audit Guide, state procurement requirements and government contract auditing with several agencies, associations, professional service firms and CPA firms. 

These services are designed to assist you with your government procurement, contract management, contract audit, compliance, and outsourcing activities. We will tailor our approach to meet your specific needs and our first objective will always be to establish a close working relationship with you and your key staff so that we completely understand your organization, goals and objectives. You will always receive sound advice and thorough, meaningful recommendations.

Our services are flexible to meet your needs. In addition to working directly with your management and staff, we are able to offer our expertise to coordinate you and your other outside professional consultants, auditors or financial advisors to insure you receive the best possible service.
