Government Contract Financing Opportunity
The United States Federal Government, the country’s largest debtor, operates differently from typical companies. Rapid growth from awarded contracts or issued task orders can be exciting, but it raises the question: “How can I meet my payroll and other obligations during this project?” The answer is SouthStar’s Government Contract Funding Vehicle.
Navigating Federal Assignment of Claims
The Federal Assignment of Claims allows a government contractor to assign due funds under a federal contract. Securing an approved Assignment of Claims is intricate, but Icarus Fund’s experienced operations team can handle it efficiently. A Contract Modification may also be needed. Once everything is in place, verification and funding typically occur within 24 hours. Partnering with a financial institution that understands these processes and communicates effectively with Contracting Officers is crucial.
