This document is an "Accounting System Questionnaire" designed to enable the Government to determine the adequacy of a prospective contractor's accounting system. It is required if a contractor has not had a prior determination of an acceptable accounting system by DCAA or another Government entity.

The questionnaire consists of 15 questions covering various aspects of an organization's accounting system, including:

• Performance on Cost-Type Contracts/Task Orders

• Compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)

• Use of accrual basis accounting

• Ability to generate financial reports

• Full operation of the accounting system

• Consistency of labor rates with estimating principles and Government cost reasonableness principles

• Segregation of direct and indirect costs

• Identification and accumulation of direct costs by contract

• Allocation of indirect costs

• Accumulation of costs under general ledger control

• Timekeeping system for labor charges

• Labor distribution system

• Exclusion of unallowable costs

• Identification of costs by contract line item/units

• Bidders must fully respond to each question by checking a yes/no box AND providing an explanatory narrative.

• Narratives should validate 'yes' answers or explain 'no' answers, detailing how the organization will handle the requirement.

• Sufficient detail is required to describe processes, including account numbers and process flow.

• Responses referring to previous questions are not acceptable.

• If a bidder has a prior audit report or accounting system approval letter from DCAA or another Government entity for an acceptable accounting system, they should submit that instead of this questionnaire and are not required to answer the remaining questions.

• If no prior determination exists, this questionnaire must be completed and submitted with the proposal.

• Failure to adequately address these questions may impact the Government's determination of the adequacy of the bidder's accounting system, which is crucial for contract award.
