Cyber Self Defense workshops every 3 months, and the next one is Feb 3 ( http://www.theneteffect.com/courses/ ).  These workshops are open to the public and designed for non-technical people to learn basic security practices, and of course I’d like to plug it on the show. You can ask me questions about any of the topics in the workshop.  Also, my workshops meet the requirements for the “New Technology Requirement” the Florida Bar is now requiring of its members.  You can read about this at http://www.floridabar.org/tfb/TFBMember.nsf/ED6E4BCB92A8FE1B852567090069F3C2/EF275B8B68D1C99F85256B2F006CA497?OpenDocument and I expect more bar associations (and other professional orgs) to follow suit.

Pensacola Business Radio: Spotlight – Guests: Jenny Clark with Solvability

Jenny W Clark

Your Coach for DCAA Compliant QuickBooks Boot Camp ♦ Veterans Advocate ♦ PodCaster

JENNY W CLARK: Solvability, i4GovCon Community and Summit, DCAA Compliant QuickBooks Boot Camp, Florida GovCon Podcast

As a small business owner in federal contracting, you need to focus on business development, recruitment, program execution and proposals, not worrying about your financial reporting and accounting. Dealing with billings, payroll and expense reporting takes up more of your time than it should. You don’t get your financial statements on time, the numbers keep bouncing around, and your banker keeps asking questions. You need to set up budgets and you need an indirect rate model for running “what-if” scenarios. How do you get your accounting processes streamlined, so you can get back to the real work?

Your options are:
Do It Yourself: Keep searching for answers online or relying on friends for templates.

Done for You: Get an outside group to “re-do” your system, and rely on them to take care of you.

DONE WITH YOU: Review the reporting you have and tweak it so your reports are more accurate and more current. Create a plan that builds on your current systems, shows you how to get more out of it, and focuses on best practices for federal contract accounting. Join live sessions and online courses as a member of a mastermind group, with access to advanced sessions specifically designed for small businesses in federal contracting.

For federal contractors, your accounting system shouldn’t be holding you back, but it will if you can’t pass DCAA audits or prove to a prime that you understand FAR 31 and follow CAS (even though you’re exempt as a small business.)

If you are ready to learn about a fresh approach to getting your accounting system on track – let’s talk. We offer training and support for small businesses in federal contracting including government contract accounting workshops, webinars, boot camps and conferences.

We offer the latest in leading edge technology the telecommunications industry has to offer from IP, VOIP and hosted telephone systems, voice and data networking, local line service with unlimited local and long distance calling, and surveillance hardware. Our over 32 year track record demonstrates our commitment to our customers and our expertise in the communications industry. We have the solutions to fit your business.

This is a very complicated and confusing time in the communications industry.

The decision of what equipment to choose and the company with which to partner is a high priority matter, especially when those decisions have a direct impact on the success of your business. This is why we believe a relationship with Southeastern Telephone can be such a valuable asset to your company.
Our over thirty two year track record is an indication that we know the industry, service what we sell, and provide products that stand the test of time. Our experience in all facets of communications ensures a smooth and uneventful installation or service that will allow you to stay focused on your business and not the telecommunications business. At a time when many companies are treating telecom products and services as a commodity, we can only say that logically mission critical voice and data systems don’t fall into that category.

Women In Technology – Guests: Jo Lynn Barnicoat / Clever Ogre, Lindsay Ryman / Greater Pensacola Chamber & Innovation Coast

As top-level leaders, the women (who will be part of this show) may not seem like the most representative sample – but we should view them as symbolic, and as part of the vanguard. For each one of them, there are legions of women in less-prominent and lower-level roles and organizations who are forging careers as women in technology. And most of them are doing so without degrees in computer science, without being coders, and without creating or working for tech start-ups. That’s not to say there isn’t still disparity in technology-related fields, roles and firms – or the need to do more to create opportunities for women, as well as better gender balance and equity – but the pursuit of those goals may be better served by a broader point of view.–September 30, 2014 Courtney Hunt

Jenny Clark / Slovability
CEO

 

 

 

 

Jenny W Clark is founder and CEO of Solvability, Inc., a training organization dedicated to small businesses in the federal contracting industry.  Through webinars, podcasts, live “boot camps” and conferences, Jenny help small business learn the accounting side of federal contracting and shows them strategies to be more competitive and improve their cash flow.

 

Growing up in a Navy family, Jenny considers herself lucky to have grown up in the Pensacola area.  She is a Gulf Breeze High School graduate and returns to the Panhandle frequently to visit family.  Jenny has a BA in Economics and also a Masters in International Business Studies.  She’s worked in the aerospace and defense industry for over 30 years, specializing in accounting systems.

 

Jenny has stayed connected with the iTen area business community and sees lots of potential for growth in Florida, especially in IT, aviation, and unmanned vehicles.  She is also an advocate for veterans, especially for veterans who are transitioning from military to civilian careers.

 

Jenny currently lives and works in the Tampa Bay area.  She can be reached through her website at www.solvability.com or via e-mail at jwclark@solvability.com or through Linked in.

Founded in 1997, Solvability works exclusively with small businesses performing as either a prime contractor or subcontractor on federal contracts, focusing on DCAA Compliant accounting systems.

Growing companies need information about which systems to use, the costs of the software, implementation, training and maintenance.  Understanding your business structure, your plans for the future, the types of contracts and even agencies you are going after, and your reporting requirements are key to selecting the right financial accounting and reporting systems.

So where do you go for help?  The local PTAC can only really provide information about start-ups.  Your partners and competitors will only share some of their knowledge and strategy.  Large prime contractors don’t understand (and don’t care) that implementing an ERP system is expensive and time consuming, plus it takes more experienced accounting teams to run, and that your priority is passing a DCAA audit (since most small businesses are CAS-exempt.)

Before you can put in the right systems – you need the right people!  Finance and Accounting professionals who understand accounting, cost accounting and government contracting requirements, who become part of your key personnel and keep your books straight, but also know about indirect rate strategies, multipliers, billing, bidding, unallowables, unbilled and how to pass a DCAA Audit.

That is where Solvability comes in – your resource for selecting and  integrating the systems you need, while providing training for accounting, cost accounting and government contracting for you and your team.
