Senior-level finance insight for growing government contractors.
Merriton Federal Advisory helps federal contractors improve forecasting, contract profitability, pricing, cash-flow visibility, and executive decision-making—without the cost of building a large internal finance organization.

What We Do
Practical finance leadership that connects the contract, the forecast, and the executive decision.
Fractional FP&A & Finance Leadership
Budgeting, forecasting, annual operating plans, headcount modeling, cash-flow planning, management reporting, and executive decision support.
Program Finance & Contract Performance
EAC/ETC forecasting, contract profitability, revenue and margin analysis, backlog visibility, burn-rate reviews, variance analysis, and project financial performance.
Pricing & Growth Support
Proposal financial modeling, labor builds, indirect-rate assumptions, scenario analysis, margin modeling, and financial support for new-business decisions.
Finance Transformation & Analytics
Executive dashboards, reporting automation, finance-process improvement, Power BI, Excel modeling, and Costpoint-oriented finance support.
Built for growing federal contractors
As contractors scale, accounting alone is not enough. Leadership needs forward-looking visibility into program performance, margin, cash, and growth decisions.
- Approx. $3M–$50M annual revenue
- Multiple active federal contracts or task orders
- Growing headcount and indirect-cost complexity
- Need for stronger EAC and project-level visibility
- Need senior finance support without another full-time executive hire
Experienced finance leadership for the federal market
Merriton Federal Advisory was founded to give growing government contractors the financial discipline, analysis, and decision support typically available to much larger organizations.
Finance + Operations
Experience across FP&A, program finance, project controls, EAC/ETC forecasting, annual planning, pricing, earned-value environments, executive reporting, and financial analytics.
Actionable, not theoretical
We work alongside CEOs, CFOs, controllers, operations leaders, and program managers to turn financial data into clear decisions and repeatable management processes.
Merriton Financial Performance Assessment
A focused review of your finance operating model designed to identify where leadership lacks visibility and where better processes can improve margin, cash flow, and decision-making.
- Forecasting and EAC discipline
- Contract margins and variance drivers
- Indirect-rate planning
- Backlog and cash-flow visibility
- Pricing and proposal finance
- Management reporting and finance processes
Deliverable: current-state assessment, key risks and opportunities, and a prioritized 90-day finance roadmap.
Implementation and ongoing fractional finance support are scoped separately based on complexity and reporting cadence.
