For small GovCons, DCAA compliance can feel overwhelming — especially when the first real test comes during an audit or accounting system review.

That is exactly why Wendroff & Associates and WiseCost created the DCAA Ready webinar series.

In this first session, Sarah Sun, CPA, Tax Manager at Wendroff & Associates, joins Alfonso Aguilera, CEO and Co-Founder of WiseCost, to cover the basics: what DCAA compliance means, what the SF-1408 checklist evaluates, where companies commonly fall short, and what to put in place before your first cost-type contract.

Tax Planning Season Is Underway! 📅

If your income, business activity, investments, or expenses have changed this year, now is the time to revisit your tax strategy.

During your tax planning session, we'll:

✅ Estimate your 2026 tax liability
✅ Review deductions, credits, and retirement contributions
✅ Plan around new tax legislation and key deadlines
✅ Discuss life changes and their potential tax impact

Proactive tax planning can help reduce your annual tax liability, improve cash flow, and minimize surprises when it's time to file.

Mid-year is one of the best opportunities to make adjustments while there is still time to take action.

For nearly 20 years, our team has worked with government contractors navigating the complexities of DCAA compliance.

One issue came up again and again — companies wanted to remain in QuickBooks Online, but lacked efficient tools for compliant timekeeping, labor distribution, and audit-ready processes without moving to complex, expensive ERP systems.

That ongoing challenge is what ultimately led to the creation of WiseCost.

WiseCost was developed through a collaboration between Managing Partner Brian Wendroff and technology entrepreneur Alfonso Aguilera to help government contractors strengthen compliance processes while continuing to operate within QuickBooks Online.

Over the past year, the platform has been refined through real-world use, with a focus on usability, accountability, workflow improvements, and the day-to-day realities government contractors face.

This partnership reflects the same approach we bring to our clients every day: combining practical financial guidance with modern accounting technology that helps businesses operate more efficiently and make more informed decisions.

WiseCost is now live and available to government contractors seeking a more streamlined approach to DCAA compliance within QuickBooks Online.

The April 15 tax deadline is a major milestone, but it’s not the only one that matters.

For business owners and nonprofit organizations in particular, the rest of the year is filled with important dates that can impact cash flow, compliance, and overall strategy.

Quarterly estimated payments, extension deadlines, state and local filings, and key requirements like Form 990 for nonprofits (due May 15) don’t slow down after Tax Day.

We’ve mapped out a full 2026 tax calendar to help you stay ahead, avoid penalties and interest, and plan more proactively. It also includes calendar reminders you can add directly, and links to IRS tax forms and resources.
