Compliance Without the Chaos
DCAA compliance shouldn't mean 60-hour weeks buried in documentation. Hour Timesheet automates attestation, approvals, and audit trails—so you can stop surviving audits and start winning contracts.
The Chaos Nobody Warned You About
You got into government contracting for the opportunity. Instead, you're drowning in compliance requirements. Every audit is a fire drill. Every week, more hours on paperwork than proposals. You're surviving—but is this really what you signed up for?
Over $800M at Risk
DCAA questions over $800M in contractor costs annually. One compliance gap can mean 18-month suspension. You didn't build this business to lose it over a timesheet.
Weeks of Audit Prep
Every audit sends your team scrambling. Documentation that should take hours consumes weeks. You're so busy surviving audits you can't focus on winning the next contract.
Compliance Owns Your Calendar
Daily time entry. Supervisor approvals. Audit trails. No erasures. The rules are overwhelming—and one missed signature could cost you everything you've built.
The Shift: From Surviving to Winning
Imagine audits that take hours instead of weeks. Compliance that runs itself. Time to actually pursue new contracts instead of managing old paperwork. That's what 500+ contractors have discovered since 2007.
