MAXIMUS' Indirect Cost Rates for Fiscal Years 2002 and 2003 (Limited Distribution) (A-15-06-16091)

Our objective was to evaluate the indirect cost rates as reported in the MAXIMUS indirect cost rate proposals. MAXIMUS' Human Service Group manages the Social Security Administration's (SSA) cost-reimbursement contracts. As a result, our audit focused on the indirect cost rates proposed for this organizational group. Specifically, we determined whether the direct and indirect costs to develop these rates were: reasonable, allowable, and allocable in accordance with the contract terms and applicable Government acquisition regulations.

Our audit resulted in an insignificant change to the indirect cost rates of MAXIMUS for Fiscal Years 2002 and 2003. Therefore, we did not make any recommendations to SSA.
