Contract Obligation Bridge Service (Manual Reconciliation Bureau)

A specialized reconciliation bureau that acts as a human-in-the-loop intermediary between NASA/DoD facility managers' legacy systems. The service ingests monthly SAP and CMM extracts, maps obligations across both systems using domain expertise in government accounting rules, identifies phantom task order needs, and delivers a unified monthly reconciliation report plus corrected journal entries ready for both systems. No software integration required—pure operational excellence and government accounting knowledge.

SERVICE

34 weeks • 70% confidence

Value Proposition

Eliminates 40-60 hours/month of manual reconciliation work by facility finance teams. Reduces audit findings from system mismatches by 80%.

Original Problem

Government agencies struggle to reconcile fragmented financial systems when managing complex multi-year facility contracts

NASA and other federal agencies must manually create placeholder task orders in their Contract Management Module (CMM) systems to account for funding obligations across multiple financial systems (CMM and SAP), creating administrative overhead, reconciliation errors, and audit risks. Current solutions force agencies to maintain duplicate records and workarounds instead of having integrated systems that automatically sync funding allocations across platforms. This is particularly painful for large maintenance and operations contracts worth hundreds of millions where funding is split across multiple CLINs and fiscal years.
