Welcome

We Know Government Contract Accounting.

Left Brain Professionals is not your typical CPA firm.

We are a boutique accounting and advisory services firm serving the compliance needs of U.S. federal government contractors. We work only with federal government contractors providing operational and strategic support, resources, and training.  We live, eat, and breathe the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) on a daily basis so you don’t have to.  

There’s no need to fire your current CPA as they may be the best advisor for your tax and financial planning purposes, but may not be the best advisor to your growing government contract business. While they focus on tax and audit, we focus on government contract accounting compliance.  

Welcome to Left Brain Professionals, the ultimate resource for government contract accounting! Our CPA-led team of experienced professionals has a deep understanding of the complex regulations and long-term strategies needed to maximize your success when working with federal contracts.

Government Contract Accounting is our specialty.

We understand how difficult and time-consuming it can be to manage government contracts; that’s why our services are here to give you peace of mind. We offer comprehensive solutions ranging from DCAA and FAR compliance advice to indirect rate strategies, audit preparation & remediation, accounting system design & implementation, and much more.

We also provide operational support such as monthly accounting packages, incurred cost proposals, and training in person or online so that you can have the confidence that you’re following all relevant regulations and maximizing your potential success.

Our goal is to help you save time and cost by addressing compliance requirements before a critical issue arises while delivering compliant results to achieve your business goals. Contact us today to learn how Left Brain Professionals can help take your business to the next level!

A Few of Our Clients

Robert was a fantastic asset to our team for the roughly year and a half that he supported us. His knowledge of defense contracting practices and best standards was outstanding. However, more importantly beyond just being a wealth of knowledge, he found a number of high impact ways to put his expertise to use to help us drive efficiency and close compliance risk. He provided outstanding audit support during our CPSR both in preparation for the audit as well as real-time during the event. He also provided strategic guidance and project management support for several technological system enhancements around compliance documentation that increased both standardization and productivity.

Unlike many consultants, Robert is always ready to get his hands dirty and actually drive solutions forward instead of just playing the role of armchair adviser. He would return fantastic project results while simultaneously training our team along the way to help us bolster and build competence in internal resources.

Bradley Dembo, Sr. Director – Material & Planning at BAE Systems

Knowledgeable, conscientious work. Pleasant to work with, and instructive to those without previous Government Accounting experience. Highly recommend for those contemplating Government contracting.

Gary Neidig, ITAMCO

Robert is a commensurate professional. I would recommend Robert to any client looking to resolve a regulatory compliance, accounting, or contracting issue.  

Scott Sewell, Director I, OSI Business Solutions

Robert’s knowledge of defense contracting and export regulations and related processes is exemplary. I’d place him in the top 5% in his field based on my 8 years as a defense contractor and 15 years of active duty acquisition service. He is a true professional…it was a pleasure to work with him.

David Snyder

As a government contracts lawyer, I hate to admit it but, to me, an experienced accountant is the most important professional for a government contractor. Robert is my go-to accountant when my clients bring me an issue involving government accounting, cost principles, audits, etc. He’s very good!
