The End is Near: DCAA Projects End of Incurred Cost Backlog by FY 2018
Client Alert | 1 min read | 06.11.18
The Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) recently made public its Fiscal Year 2017 Report to Congress, which, among other things, provides an update on incurred cost audits. According to DCAA, it is “on track to eliminate the backlog by the close of FY 2018” as it now has “under 3,000 incurred cost years in [such] backlog….” However, it is important to remember that DCAA does not consider an audit backlogged unless it is “older than two fiscal years.”
The report also covers other aspects of incurred cost audits (e.g., sustained audit exceptions), which are discussed more fully in our blog post on the topic.

The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) published a final rule amending 14 CFR Part 234 that fundamentally changes how airlines report the causes of flight delays and cancellations. Effective October 19, 2026, the rule implements Section 511(b) of the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 by creating a new reporting category, the “Section 511(b) category,” for ten specific events that Congress determined are not attributable to airline control. The rule simultaneously narrows the existing "Air Carrier" reporting category by expressly excluding those same ten events.
