## Story

Significance Inc., a woman-owned small business (EDWOSB) government consulting company, is proud to support and congratulate the United States Marine Corps (USMC) on its recent achievement of receiving an unmodified “clean” audit opinion. This milestone makes the USMC the first Military Service within the Department of Defense to earn such an esteemed opinion, highlighting its dedication to financial accountability and transparency.

After undergoing a rigorous two-year audit cycle, the USMC’s commitment to financial transparency, adherence to audit regulations, and robust internal control environments were recognized by the auditor contracted through the Department of Defense Inspector General. This accomplishment demonstrates the USMC’s unwavering commitment to maintaining high standards of financial integrity and accountability.

Significance Inc. played a significant role in the USMC’s transition to the Defense Agency Initiative (DAI) financial management system, providing support in various areas such as sustainment of the real property baseline, implementation of improved procedures, internal controls, and business process re-engineering. The company is dedicated to continuing its support to help the USMC sustain its unmodified audit opinion.

As the USMC continues to prioritize compliance and excellence, Significance is proud to be a part of this achievement. The company has been supporting various offices within the USMC and looks forward to further collaboration in driving financial excellence within the Department of Defense.
