The QuickBooks Compliance Crisis: How One Machine Shop Nearly Lost Their Lockheed Contract

SOUTHWEST Session: QuickBooks is one of the most widely used accounting platforms in manufacturing but it’s also one of the most overlooked compliance risks. In The QuickBooks Compliance Crisis, Justice IT Consulting reveals how one AS9100-certified machine shop nearly lost its Lockheed Martin contract after a simple QuickBooks setup violated CMMC and DFARS cybersecurity requirements. This presentation shows how the manufacturer turned a near-disaster into a success story using a proven seven-step strategy to isolate QuickBooks from CUI systems, apply multi-factor authentication, document data policies, and update their System Security Plan resulting in a 110 SPRS score and zero workflow disruption. Attendees will discover how to identify compliance pitfalls in everyday business tools, safeguard critical data without replacing core software, and build a defensible cybersecurity posture. Learn how to keep your QuickBooks and your contracts: compliant, secure, and audit-ready.
