Ensuring Compliance and Financial Efficiency

At Barclay Group LLC, our mission is to establish compliant and current accounting data to be able to make informed decisions moving forward. We deliver tailored client accounting solutions that help you stay compliant, profitable, and informed. Whether you’re managing complex government contracts, running a busy law firm, or leading a construction project, our team acts as your trusted accounting partner, handling the numbers so you can focus on what you do best.

Who We Serve

We specialize in supporting accounting needs across several highly regulated and detail-intensive industries that benefit from Job Cost detailed accounting. For government contractors, we align your financial systems with FAR/DFARS requirements, indirect rate structures, and DCAA audit readiness. For law firms, we manage trust accounting, track retainers, and help ensure compliance with state bar financial rules. In real estate and construction, we manage job costing, WIP schedules, billing draws, and align cash flow reporting with contractual obligations.

We also offer integrated financial oversight for contracts and subcontracts administration, ensuring your accounting processes are tightly connected to the lifecycle of each agreement, from award to closeout.

What We Offer

outsourced accounting services

Barclay Group’s Outsourced Accounting Services are customizable to fit your organization’s size, industry, and internal capacity. Whether you need 10 hours a month or full-service accounting support, we scale with you.

Day-to-Day Accounting Support

We take the burden of daily accounting off your plate so your internal team can focus on what matters most. Our team manages your invoicing process, processes accounts payable and receivable, performs monthly reconciliations, and maintains your general ledger with clean and auditable records. We also handle payroll and employee reimbursements, ensuring every dollar is tracked, categorized, and documented.

At the end of each month, we provide you with clean, easy-to-read financial reports that help you understand where your money is going and how your business is performing.

Contract-Focused Compliance & Controls

Especially for government contractors, maintaining compliance isn’t just a best practice — it’s essential. We help you prepare for DCAA audits, ensure alignment with FAR/DFARS cost principles, and structure your indirect cost rates to match the complexity of your business.

Our team establishes compliant timekeeping and cost pool structures, organizes your documentation trail, and supports internal financial controls that align with federal requirements. You’ll always know how your numbers connect back to your contracts — and how to answer if an auditor comes calling.

Financial Strategy Aligned with Your Contracts

We go beyond the basics by helping you interpret your financial data in the context of your contracts. This includes tracking burn rates to ensure proper utilization of funded hours, analyzing project-by-project profitability, and providing customized reports that connect your cost data to contract milestones and deliverables.

We also support indirect cost rate optimization, giving you a clearer view of overhead recovery and margins across different types of contracts. Whether you’re trying to identify hidden losses or project long-term cash flow, our insight helps guide smart business decisions.

Proposal Pricing & Bid Support

When it’s time to pursue new contracts, our accounting and pricing team works closely with you to build competitive, compliant pricing models. We provide cost realism analysis, help you structure labor categories and rates, and create budget frameworks that align with RFP expectations.

We also coordinate closely with your technical team to ensure the pricing volume is aligned with the rest of the proposal, minimizing inconsistencies and strengthening your overall submission.

Why Work with Barclay Group?

What sets us apart is our deep industry expertise and our ability to integrate accounting with the broader context of financial strategy. We understand the language of GAAP compliance, and we know how to translate complex financial data into clear, actionable insights.

Unlike generalist firms or simplistic bookkeeping, we don’t just process transactions, give you reports and leave you to figure them out. We walk you through what the numbers mean, how they impact your cash flow, and where you may need to focus your attention. We offer flexible engagement models tailored to each client, allowing you to scale our support up or down based on project demands or internal bandwidth.

Flexible Engagement Models

Our services are designed to meet you where you are. Some clients engage us for just a few hours per month to handle ongoing reconciliations and reporting, while others rely on our full-service model for comprehensive monthly accounting and strategic guidance. We tailor our engagement based on the size of your team, the complexity of your contracts, and your growth goals.

Let’s Talk About Your Accounting Needs

Barclay Group is here to help you gain clarity, reduce risk, and strengthen your financial foundation, one contract and one ledger at a time. Whether you own a law firm, have government contracts, or own a real estate or construction business, if you need outsourced accounting services, get in touch with us to see how our advisory services can help your company.
