A Financial Analysis Approach Applicable to the Aerospace Industry.

Abstract

The Armed Service Procurement Regulation requires that a contractor's financial capability be determined prior to contract award. Financial analysis performed in support of a DOD procurement may be performed by a number of offices such as the Procurement Contracting Officer to a Defense Contract Administration Services Office. There is a potential in this situation for repetition, inaccuracies, or unusable results is a consistent format of financial analysis is not followed. This study was designed to develop tools and techniques of financial analysis for the aerospace industry. The techniques of analysis were gathered from available literature and then tailored to the aerospace industry. The study culminates by combining these techniques into checklist type model which the researchers believe will be useful to evaluate a contractor prior to contract award, and to assist in the contract management effort after contract award.
