Government Contracting

For decades, RSM's assurance, tax and business consulting professionals have been helping government contractors navigate the regulatory environment and improve their performance through an ever-changing business and government landscape. Shrinking government budgets, a low-cost, technically acceptable government-buying philosophy and an increasingly stringent regulatory environment means contractors need experienced advisors who understand their industry and will deliver customized solutions that fit.
