From the Back Cover Praise for the AuthorYou won't find anyone more passionate and experienced in dealing with the intricacies of DCAA than Steve.  Steve helped us successfully navigate our first incurred cost audit and come out with our sanity intact.  In my travels, Steve holds a greater breadth of background and experience with DCAA issues than most accountants, and I would include many DCAA employees as well.  Steve has a particularly interesting perspective in that he prides himself on not only helping his client (the business) finish audits, but also to do whatever he can to guide the auditors on best practices and interpretations of the FAR.  With us, he's got a client for life.Mahalo! Kevin Miyashiro, CEO, TeraSysTechnologies For the past 1/2 dozen years, Ihave been dealing with Steve Avery, a.k.a. dcaacompliance.com.
