FAR Audits – Charlotte (NC)
For many Charlotte and North Carolina architecture and engineering firms, government and state Department of Transportation (DOT) contracts are an essential source of revenue. Since these contracts require compliance with government regulations when bidding on and performing services, a Federal Acquisition (FAR) audit is required. The audits are essential for validating the contractor’s indirect costs are properly calculated, classified, and allocated. This helps contractors to maintain eligibility for contracts, avoid non-compliance penalties, and recover costs. Whether this is your first audit or part of ongoing compliance, it is important to work with a qualified provider.
FAR Audit Experience
Brady Ware provides AASHTO and FAR audit services to companies in Charlotte and North Carolina. We work closely with those subjected to AASHTO and FAR Part 31 regulations to ensure compliance with established regulations. Our team members are familiar with the nuances involved in both standards and undergo ongoing training to stay current with changing trends. This results in a comprehensive and value-added audit experience.
AASHTO/FAR Audit Services
- State DOT Acceptance: Our audits are performed to the rigorous standards of Government Auditing Standards (GAGAS) and follow the specific guidance of the AASHTO Uniform Audit & Accounting Guide. This ensures your rate is recognized and accepted by all State Departments of Transportation.
- FAR Part 31 Compliance: We provide a comprehensive review and audit of your Schedule of Indirect Costs based on the cost principles in Part 31 of the FAR. You receive the necessary Opinion Letter and certified report required to confidently submit your rate for billing.
- Strategic Cost Segregation: We perform an in-depth analysis of your direct, indirect, and unallowable costs. We find opportunities to maximize your allowable costs (like fringe benefits and facility costs) to achieve a higher, yet fully justifiable, reimbursement rate.
- Unallowable Cost Protection: Proactive identification and segregation of all unallowable expenses (e.g., entertainment, political contributions, federal taxes) to prevent audit findings. Management bears the sole responsibility for this crucial step.

About the Charlotte Business Community
ChatGPT said:
The business community in Charlotte is one of the most dynamic and fast-growing in the southeastern United States, anchored by a powerful combination of financial services, logistics, energy, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing. Charlotte is widely recognized as the nation’s second-largest banking center, with a deep concentration of corporate headquarters, regional offices, and professional services firms that support banking, capital markets, fintech, and risk management. This financial backbone drives a robust ecosystem of accounting firms, law practices, consulting groups, and technology providers that serve both large institutions and a rapidly expanding middle-market business segment.
Beyond finance, Charlotte’s economy benefits from its strategic position as a major transportation and logistics hub. The presence of Charlotte Douglas International Airport, one of the busiest airports in the country, supports global connectivity for manufacturers, distributors, and corporate headquarters, while extensive interstate and rail access strengthens the region’s role in supply chain management and e-commerce fulfillment. These advantages have attracted a steady flow of corporate relocations, regional distribution centers, and headquarters expansions over the past decade.
