Budget impasse and contract delays causing federal contractors to hire and invest less with reduced revenue and historically low profit margins -- download free Centurion Research Solutions report.

Chantilly, Virgnia (PRWEB) February 06, 2013

The federal budget process has practically ground to a halt. Centurion Research Solutions recently conducted a survey of its clients to ascertain the impact of this impasse on their current and future business growth plans and, in some cases, financial survival. In a nutshell – the survey illustrates the drastic effects this situation is already having on federal agencies and the companies that support their mission. Over 90% of the 131 industry respondents indicated they had been impacted by the inability of political leaders to establish a more predicable budget process.

Referencing the survey results, Gary Loyd, Centurion's CEO, noted that, "Only 11% of responding companies are making a significant investment in new business initiatives and 67% of respondents are doing no or little new hiring, which, of course, does not bode well for the economy."

The continuing uncertainty about the budget has flowed down to every level of government. Procurements have been delayed, contract budgets slashed, awards increasingly made to the lowest priced bidder. From the survey results, it is obvious that thousands of federal contractors are being negatively impacted especially in terms of reduced hiring and historically low profit margins.
