Today we had the privilege of hosting Pete Ragone, an esteemed Audit Director at SC&H Group. Pete has been a vital member of the SC&H team since 2015, bringing with him a wealth of experience in public accounting dating back to 1990.

Throughout his career, Pete has emerged as a leader in financial statement audits, reviews, and compilations for a diverse range of domestic and international organizations. His clientele spans certified small businesses, including those participating in the SBA 8(a) program, as well as middle- and large-market clients across industries such as Government Contracting, Manufacturing, Construction, Technology, Healthcare, and Nonprofit sectors.

Pete's extensive background includes audit management roles in both "Big 4" firms and regional accounting firms. His expertise encompasses a spectrum of financial areas, including cost accounting, DCAA audit compliance, FAR, CAS, foreign currency translation accounting, fair value accounting, complex revenue recognition issues, and more. He has a remarkable track record of providing clients with valuable insights, from accounting software selection and implementation to general business consulting advice.

Beyond his client-focused responsibilities, Pete is actively engaged in firm initiatives. He plays a pivotal role in recruiting efforts for the Tysons Corner office and places a strong emphasis on training within his team. Pete has developed and delivered training sessions on various topics, including audit methodology, financial reporting, effective communication, and the impact of new accounting standards.

This interview is conducted by our very own Randie Ward, who has graciously decided to step into the role of Middle Market representative for Govcon Giants. So expect to hear more from her in upcoming episodes.

We are truly grateful to have had Pete Ragone on the show, sharing his wealth of knowledge and insights into the intricate world of auditing and financial consulting. Stay tuned for more inspiring conversations with industry giants on the Govcon Giants Podcast.
