Costpoint: What’s new and why government contractors should upgrade now 

As a trusted Deltek strategic alliance for over 20 years, Baker Tilly empowers the Aerospace and Defense (A&D) sector to transform government contracting operations with Deltek's leading enterprise software. Baker Tilly and Deltek enable A&D manufacturers to unlock the full potential of their enterprise resource planning (ERP) investment, combining Baker Tilly’s deep regulatory expertise, technical systems knowledge and project management rigor with Deltek’s industry-leading solutions.

A&D manufacturers need a secure, scalable solution that connects project accounting, materials, supply chain, shop floor and quality. Without the right system, inefficiencies, defects and compliance gaps can drive up costs and derail operations, affecting project performance.

Solving complex challenges in A&D

Disconnected systems are one of the biggest barriers to competitiveness in the today's A&D landscape. When operations lack visibility, teams struggle to make informed decisions. Data silos and disconnected workflows create inefficiencies, drive up costs and slow everything from procurement to production. These gaps hinder day-to-day performance and make it harder to meet compliance requirements, scale effectively and respond quickly to shifting market demands.

Deltek’s integrated manufacturing ERP doesn’t just connect your operations, it transforms them. By unifying project accounting, purchasing, supply chain, materials, inventory, shop floor execution, quality assurance and labor tracking into one secure, scalable, and government-compliant platform, A&D manufacturers gain the visibility and control needed to reduce risk, improve performance and accelerate growth.

2025 Deltek Clarity Government Contracting Industry Study

Each year, Deltek’s Clarity Government Contracting Industry Study surveys hundreds of leaders across the government contractor (GovCon) space to uncover key trends, challenges and priorities. The 2025 findings offer a clear look at what manufacturers are prioritizing, and where the biggest risks and opportunities lie.

1 Risk: Supply chain

Tariff volatility, geopolitical shifts, evolving policies and inconsistent supplier performance make end-to-end supply chain visibility more critical than ever.

2 Challenge: Quality

Quality control continues to be among the top manufacturing challenges. Without standardization and real-time visibility, manufacturers are stuck reacting to problems instead of preventing them, leading to delays, rework and higher costs.

58% still rely on manual processes

A majority of manufacturers lack automation, relying on paper-based workflows that slow operations, increase errors and complicate compliance.

35% track cost of quality

Excessive rework and wasted resources are cutting into margins, making cost of quality an increasingly important key performance indicator (KPI) for driving profitability.
