Requirements

CAS-covered contracts require contractors to disclose cost accounting practices, follow disclosed practices consistently, and comply with applicable CAS standards. Full CAS coverage (19 standards) applies to contractors receiving $50M+ in covered awards. Modified coverage applies to contracts over $7.5M.

Why It Matters for Contractors

CAS compliance significantly affects how contractors structure indirect rates, allocate costs, and manage their accounting systems. Non-compliance can trigger cost adjustments, interest charges, and DCAA audit findings. Proper CAS compliance is essential for protecting profit margins.
