2015 was an eventful year for our company. We increased the scope and depth of our service offerings to our customers in 2015 while also adding additional talent and expertise in many key areas of our firm.
We have expanded our services to include recurring services in the accounting, compliance, software, contracts and HR support areas of our firm. Our customers also asked us to provide recurring cost proposal assistance and we have now added this to our suite of services. We responded with dedicated teams working around the clock to assist our customers in meeting their timelines.
We are very pleased with the growth in our software services and implementation groups and our partnership with both Deltek and Unanet. We are supporting our customers now with more efficient implementations as well as ongoing outsourced support in the cloud.
Our national consulting group expanded into performing more work for non-DOD agencies that traditionally had been performed by DCAA. This development appears to be continuing and we are excited about 2016 and beyond. We continued to support the Contractor Business Systems and in particular we saw in increase with the MMAS requests from our customers and continued supporting Accounting, Estimating and Procurement (CPSR) as we have in years past. Recurring services for our customers and supporting our Directors of Compliance and Internal Audit functions continues to be a focus for us and our Directors.
Our team members continue to amaze me with their dedication to our customers and their profession. In 2015 we increased our website content with more blogs, training classes, webinars and made improvements to our Government Contract Insights newsletter which continues to be published monthly by Mike Steen.
Cheers to 2015 and we are looking forward to an even better 2016. Thank you to all of our dedicated customers for all of your support.
