William Payne, President and CEO
Since 2009, ICP Systems LLC has delivered IT workforce solutions that enable government agencies, Fortune 500 and mid-market clients to achieve critical business objectives and to manage their IT consulting spending. “In government contracting, your accounting system is your lifeline” says William Payne, Founder, CEO and President of ICP. “I knew that in order to be successful, I needed a strong application to manage my business, and Corp_Pro℠ stood out. I’ll admit that at first I was hesitant about a company I didn’t know before, but when I looked under the hood at the engine, I was blown away. Corp_Pro℠ offers serious workflow management with sound DCAA compliance.”
ICP transitioned from using Quickbooks™ for its accounting, and Corp_Pro℠ handled the transition smoothly. “Corp_Pro℠ managed our data exchanges flawlessly, and we didn’t miss a beat,” says Payne, who has nearly 30 years of experience in government contracting. Payne was impressed with Corp_Pro℠‘s customer service. “Corp_Pro℠ offers outstanding technical support, and they get you through whatever you need. I’m a demanding customer, and if they can handle me, then they can handle anyone.”
Among other designations, ICP is a SBA-certified 8(a) program participant, SBA-certified Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), and SBA-certified HUBZone participant, and the value offered for the price was important in selecting Corp_Pro℠. “It’s best in class,” says Payne. “You’re paying for a total solution, not extra dollars for a la carte pieces of a brand name. Nothing else will give you the full functionality of Corp_Pro℠ for the price. I would have to pay five to ten times more to do the same thing with another program.”
Payne credits Corp_Pro℠ for enabling ICP to pass through the DCAA audit process. “Not all businesses can claim DCAA compliance for cost plus accounting, and we can,” he says. “And we did it with no deficiencies or weaknesses. We blazed through a DCAA audit within two weeks of installing Corp_Pro℠. It is truly an amazing system.”
