Federal primes carry the compliance burden for entire contracts — examinations, audits, corrective actions, and reporting that never stops. Wagner Program Services designs, builds, and tests the compliance programs that carry that weight, so a finding never catches your program flat-footed.
We don't just execute controls. We defend them — directly to regulators.
Federal prime contractors are accountable for regulatory compliance across everything they deliver — regulatory obligations, establishing controls, quality standards, and audit response. When the examination comes, the program either holds up or it doesn't.
Regulatory examinations and audits demand organized findings, defensible risk assessments, and a credible liaison in the room. Scrambling to compile evidence after the request lands is how findings multiply.
Compliance programs don't run on policy binders. They need QC/QA teams, SOPs, performance metrics, and case management infrastructure — and most programs were never built from the ground up to produce evidence.
Findings without managed corrective action become repeat findings. Programs need risk assessment, system recommendations, and closure tracking that regulators can follow — not a spreadsheet nobody owns.
Compliance leadership forged inside a top-tier financial institution — where the programs were large, the regulators were present, and the findings had consequences.
End-to-end regulatory compliance support — from designing the program to defending it in front of the regulator.
Regulatory compliance program design, control testing, and quality control / quality assurance build-out — teams, SOPs, and review structures constructed to produce audit-ready evidence from day one.
Regulatory examination and audit response — compiling findings, preparing risk assessments, and serving as the liaison who presents and defends the program directly to federal regulators and internal audit.
Risk assessment, system recommendations, and corrective action management — findings tracked from identification through remediation and closure, with a trail regulators can follow.
Case management system requirements development and technology modernization support — so compliance operations run on infrastructure built for the caseload, not around it.
Performance metrics, key risk indicator (KRI) and key performance indicator (KPI) development, and cross-workstream reporting that gives leadership one defensible view of compliance health.
Multi-manager team leadership across QC, performance, and case inventory functions — standing up and running the human side of the compliance program, not just the paperwork.
Field notes on the regulatory environment federal contractors actually operate in. Free, no email required.
Federal agencies estimated $186 billion in improper payments in FY2025. Contractors in and around federal financial programs answer to the contract and the regulatory ecosystem at once — payment integrity mandates, consumer protection statutes, and examination regimes converging on the same operations.

FY2025 set an all-time enforcement record — $6.8 billion in False Claims Act recoveries and 1,297 new whistleblower suits. Where the risk lives sector by sector, what a failure costs beyond the settlement, and what examination-ready actually looks like.
