FREE GovCon Compliance Diagnostics

  A fixed-price conversion changes who carries the risk.

When an existing requirement moves from cost-reimbursement, T&M, labor-hour, or hybrid contracting into a fixed-price structure, the contractor may absorb more responsibility for cost growth, scope ambiguity, performance uncertainty, subcontractor exposure, and margin erosion.

This free 20-question Fixed-Price Conversion Risk Screening helps identify whether visible warning signs may already be present before negotiation, acceptance, or performance.

It is not a full readiness review.
It is not a final diagnosis.

It is a preliminary screening tool designed to help you determine whether deeper review is warranted.

Do not guess your way into fixed-price risk.

Most procurement systems look compliant,
until someone actually reviews the files.

The problem isn’t missing documentation.
It’s unclear decisions, inconsistent logic, and files that don’t stand on their own.

And those issues don’t show up during normal operations.

They show up when someone starts asking questions.

This is not a knowledge test.
It’s a clarity test.

If you hesitate on a question - that counts.

Our FREE self-assessment is based on the purchasing system criteria contained in DFARS 252.244-7001 and the audit practices described in the DCMA CPSR Guidebook.

This Policy & Procedure Risk Evaluation focuses only on what your policies say. It is designed to determine whether your purchasing and subcontracting policies:

• Clearly define requirements and when they apply 
• Provide sufficient direction for consistent decision-making 
• Address key risk areas across the procurement lifecycle 

In just a few minutes, this diagnostic evaluates how clearly your purchasing and subcontracting policies define requirements, conditions, and decision guidance.

At the end of the assessment, you will receive a policy risk score indicating whether your framework presents Low, Moderate, or High risk due to gaps in clarity or completeness.

Use this tool as a quick check to determine whether your policies are structured to support consistent, reliable decision-making.
