The Hidden Costs Killing GovCon Profitability(and How CVRD Fixes It)

Profit Loss Isn’t Always Loud
Most GovCons focus on rates, headcount, and delivery — but forget to track what eats margin from the inside: their fringe. CVRD was built to fix that blind spot.
“Fringe mismanagement isn’t just a finance issue. It’s the silent threat to every GovCon’s bottom line.”
The Problem No One Talks About in GovCon
GovCon projects operate on razor-thin margins. But while most contractors obsess over labor rates, they miss the silent killer: unpredictable fringe costs.Group health plans look simple on paper. In reality, they turn every paycheck into a gamble. One wrong renewal, one bad class setup, and you’ve lost your margin.

- Predictable costs that protect your profit
- Real employee choice (without overwhelming them)
- Full compliance with DOL and ACA requirements
- Real-time tracking and audit-ready reporting
Instead of juggling spreadsheets, guesswork, and manual tracking, CVRD gives you control.
