Tenace

Last month, we celebrated something truly special.

Our intern Kylee (Jenn's daughter) got married, and the Tenace team was honored to be a part of the occasion. We wouldn't have missed it for the world.

Congratulations to the happy couple! Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness.

If you're trying to decide whether outsourced accounting makes sense for your business, think about capacity and expertise.

Do you have the right people? Do they have the time? Do they have the GovCon-specific knowledge?

If the answer to any of those is no, outsourcing might be the right move.

Small to medium-sized companies typically outsource accounting because they do not have the bandwidth or need to hire a full-time accountant.

Medium to larger companies outsource accounting to get the best of both worlds: a specialized accountant that can scale alongside them, plus a fractional CFO to help drive the operational aspects of financials and provide insight into strategic decisions.

Provisional rates aren't just numbers you submit to the government. They're cash-flow estimates used to bill the government during contract performance.

If your rates are too high, you'll overbill and have to return money at year-end reconciliation.

If your rates are too low, you're underbilling, which can trigger cash flow concerns for some businesses.

Both scenarios create cash flow problems. Both put unnecessary strain on your business.

At Tenace, we help government contractors develop provisional billing rates that are compliant, competitive, and defensible.

We do this by:
✅ Building realistic budgets based on historical data and trending forecasts
✅ Projecting costs accurately across all indirect pools
✅ Validating assumptions with sensitivity analysis
✅ Documenting every calculation so they can defend their rates

If your organization is struggling with calculating provisional billing rates, reach out. We're here to help.
