ATTENTION TRANSPORTATION FIRMS: AASHTO's New Uniform Audit and Accounting Guide - Oct 2009
AASHTO is releasing a new Uniform Audit and Accounting Guide--which the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) plans to incorporate into future regulations--that dramatically changes how engineering firms are compensated and audited. The new Audit Guide affects every A/E firm with DOT clients and will change how you do business.
After extensive collaboration with ACEC and FHWA, AASHTO has updated their Audit Guide to ensure compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), improve audit consistency and quality, promote the recognition of a single cognizant audit and improve government oversight and overall guidance.
