Win Contracts, Not Audit Battles
Hour Timesheet handles DCAA compliance automatically—so you can focus on delivering exceptional work and winning more contracts, not scrambling before audits.
One Failed Audit Can End Your Business
You didn't start a government contracting firm to become a compliance expert. But here you are, spending hours every week making sure your timesheets meet DCAA requirements—and still worried you'll miss something that costs you everything.
Audit Anxiety
Every DCAA audit feels like a potential disaster. One deficiency finding and the contract you've worked months to win could vanish. You're confident in your work, but are your records perfect? The stress is killing you.
Compliance Complexity
DCAA requirements are overwhelming. Daily time entry. Supervisor approval within 2 days. No erasures. Audit trail for every change. Labor distribution accuracy. You're spending 5-10 hours per week on compliance—and still not sure you're doing it right.
Risk of Revenue Loss
One failed audit could cost you $500K-$2M+ in lost contracts. A Corrective Action Plan could cost $50K-$200K to remediate. Your reputation in the government contracting space could be destroyed. The stakes are too high to risk non-compliance.
Always Audit-Ready, Never Scrambling
Hour Timesheet was built specifically for government contractors who can't afford compliance mistakes. We've been keeping contractors audit-ready since 2006—through hundreds of successful DCAA audits without a single timesheet-related finding.
