Why Aerospace & Defense Contractors Choose Deltek
Stay Audit-Ready Across Every Requirement
Governance and control is built into the platform, not bolted on. Automated DCAA, DFARS, AS9100, FAA, ITAR, and CMMC compliance keeps your teams moving fast without losing auditability at any stage.
Connect Project, Financial & Contract Data
Real-time visibility across project costs, contract performance, and financial reporting means your teams make decisions from a single source of truth, not reconciled spreadsheets pulled the night before a review.
Control Costs Across Complex Contracts
Purpose-built earned value management and EVMS compliance support give program managers the cost and schedule performance data they need, so overruns are caught early, not discovered at closeout.
Win More with Competitive, Compliant Proposals
Build accurate, CAS/FAR-compliant cost proposals faster with proposal pricing software purpose-built for government contractors, so your bids are defensible and your margins are protected from the start.
Ensure Quality and Traceability at Every Step
Part and process traceability, counterfeit risk mitigation, and AS9100- and FAA-aligned quality management keep your supply chain and shop floor operations inspection-ready before the auditor arrives.
