Baltimore, MD (1888PressRelease) January 12, 2016 - Regardless of a company's size, keeping in line with the government's accounting regulations and maintaining a business system that adheres to Contractor Business System Rules could save time and money.

The course is taught by Norman Lorch, CPA, an executive consultant with over thirty-five years of experience in the field of financial management and the administration of government contracts. In "Accounting Regulations and Business Systems," Mr. Lorch covers several topics including:
• The inter-relationships of various penalties for having a business system deemed to be inadequate or not functioning properly.

• Attendees will begin to understand the importance of establishing a system that complies with the Business System Rules of the Department of Defense Contracts-even when those rules and the related system deficiency penalties are only applicable to larger contractors.

• Minimum levels of internal controls and their importance to all contractors.

• Possible punitive actions from the failure to comply with the Department of Defense (DOD) "gold standard" and other regulations.

• How complying with DOD standards and regulations relates to satisfactory completion of the SFI 408 (Pre-award Survey of Prospective Contractor - Accounting System) for all contractors.

After the course, attendees will not only have an increased understanding of accounting regulations and business systems, but they will be able to:
• Establish the first-line of defense for systems and internal controls in their business.

• Design and implement the elements of a compliant system.

• Know the penalties for adhering to inadequate systems.
