Army CECOM starts work on audit readiness contract

The Army's Communications-Electronics Command is looking for some professional services so it can better prepare for audits.

In a new sources sought notice, CECOM is seeking information that may lead to a new contract.

Nakupuna Solutions is currently providing these services to CECOM. The small business won the $17.4 million contract in September 2020, according to GovTribe data.

The request for information does not specify whether or not this will be a small business set-aside.

The types of professional services CECOM wants cover areas such as accounting, budgeting, cost analysis, systems analysis, manpower analysis, fiscal policy, program analysis, administrative support, audit readiness and training.

Projects will include setting up training programs, conducting special studies, and building decision briefings that will recommend courses of action. The contractor will also define, develop, and document financial processes.

CECOM wants to train its workforce so the command can move toward audit readiness.

A second goal is to further develop CECOM’s expertise in using various financial systems such the General Funds Enterprise Business System, the Logistics Modernization Program, and the Global Combat Support System–Army. New releases, upgrades and patches for those systems go out each quarter.

Responses are due Jan. 23.
