Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021. The interim period unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented as described below. Certain information and disclosures normally required for annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to GAAP and SEC rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period presented have been included. The Company’s fiscal year ends on March 31 and unless otherwise noted, references to fiscal year or fiscal are for fiscal years ended March 31. The results of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes of the Company include its subsidiaries, and the joint ventures and partnerships over which the Company has a controlling financial interest. The Company uses the equity method to account for investments in entities that it does not control if it is otherwise able to exert significant influence over the entities' operating and financial policies. Certain amounts reported in the Company's prior year condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Areas of the financial statements where estimates may have the most significant effect include the provision for claimed indirect costs, valuation and lives of tangible and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets, accrued liabilities, revenue recognition, including the accrual of indirect costs, bonus and other incentive compensation, stock-based compensation, reserves for uncertain tax positions and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, provisions for income taxes, postretirement obligations, collectability of receivables, and loss accruals for litigation. Actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially from management's estimates. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2020, the SEC issued Release No. 33-10890, Amendments to Management's Discussion and Analysis, Selected Financial Data, and Supplementary Financial Information , to simplify, modernize and enhance certain financial disclosure requirements in Regulation S-K. This amendment became effective on February 10, 2021. The Company’s adoption is expected to impact fiscal 2022 Form 10-K disclosures. Other accounting and reporting pronouncements effective after September 30, 2021 and issued through the filing date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue	REVENUEThe Company's revenues from contracts with customers (clients) are derived from offerings that include consulting, analytics, digital solutions, engineering, mission, and cyber services, substantially with the U.S. government and its agencies and, to a lesser extent, subcontractors. The Company also serves foreign governments, as well as domestic and international commercial clients. The Company performs under various types of contracts, which include cost-reimbursable contracts, time-and-materials contracts, and fixed-price contracts. Contract Estimates Many of our contracts recognize revenue under a contract cost-based input method and require an Estimate-at-Completion ("EAC") process, which management uses to review and monitor the progress towards the completion of our performance obligations. Under this process, management considers various inputs and assumptions related to the EAC, including, but not limited to, progress towards completion, labor costs and productivity, material and subcontractor costs, and identified risks. Estimating the total cost at the completion of our performance obligations is subjective and requires management to make assumptions about future activity and cost drivers under the contract. Changes in these estimates can occur for a variety of reasons and, if significant, may impact the revenue and profitability of the Company’s contracts. Changes in estimates related to contracts accounted for under the EAC process are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period when such changes are determinable and reasonably estimable. If the estimate of contract profitability indicates an anticipated loss on a contract, the Company recognizes the total loss at the time it is identified. For each of the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the aggregate impact of adjustments in contract estimates was not material. Disaggregation of Revenue We disaggregate our revenue from contracts with customers by contract type, customer, as well as whether the Company acts as prime contractor or subcontractor, as we believe these categories best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The following series of tables presents our revenue disaggregated by these categories. Revenue by Contract Type: We generate revenue under the following three basic types of contracts: • Cost-Reimbursable Contracts: Cost-reimbursable contracts provide for the payment of allowable costs incurred during performance of the contract, up to a ceiling based on the amount that has been funded, plus a fixed fee or award fee. • Time-and-Materials Contracts: Under contracts in this category, we are paid a fixed hourly rate for each direct labor hour expended, and we are reimbursed for billable material costs and billable out-of-pocket expenses inclusive of allocable indirect costs. We assume the financial risk on time-and-materials contracts because our costs of performance may exceed negotiated hourly rates. • Fixed-Price Contracts: Under a fixed-price contract, we agree to perform the specified work for a predetermined price. To the extent our actual direct and allocated indirect costs decrease or increase from the estimates upon which the price was negotiated, we will generate more or less profit, respectively, or could incur a loss.

Remaining performance obligations exclude negotiated but unexercised options, the unfunded value of expired contracts, and certain variable consideration which the Company does not expect to recognize as revenue. As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the Company had $8.1 billion and $6.7 billion of remaining performance obligations, respectively. We expect to recognize approximately 70% of the remaining performance obligations at September 30, 2021 as revenue over the next 12 months, and approximately 85% over the next 24 months. The remainder is expected to be recognized thereafter. Contract Balances The Company's performance obligations are typically satisfied over time and revenue is generally recognized using a cost-based input method. Fixed-price contracts are typically billed to the customer using milestone or fixed monthly payments, while cost-reimbursable-plus-fee and time-and-material contracts are typically billed to the customer at periodic intervals (e.g. monthly or weekly) as indicated by the terms of the contract. Disparities between the timing of revenue recognition and customer billings and cash collections result in net contract assets or liabilities being recognized at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets primarily consist of unbilled receivables typically resulting from revenue recognized exceeding the amount billed to the customer and right to payment is not just subject to the passage of time. Unbilled amounts represent revenues for which billings have not been presented to customers at quarter-end or year-end. These amounts are generally billed and collected within one year subject to various conditions including, without limitation, appropriated and available funding. Long-term unbilled receivables not anticipated to be billed and collected within one year, which are primarily related to retainage, holdbacks, and long-term rate settlements to be billed at contract closeout, are included in other long-term assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities primarily consist of advance payments, billings in excess of costs incurred and deferred revenue. Contract assets and liabilities are reported on a net contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to provide for an estimate of uncollectible receivables. Provision for credit losses recognized was not material for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The following table summarizes the contract assets and liabilities, and accounts receivable, net of allowance recognized on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets: Contract Balances September 30, March 31, Current assets Accounts receivable–billed $ 426,571 $ 375,383 Accounts receivable–unbilled Contract assets 1,085,008 1,037,968 Allowance for credit losses — (1,457) Accounts receivable, net 1,511,579 1,411,894 Other long-term assets Accounts receivable–unbilled Contract assets 64,084 63,869 Total accounts receivable, net $ 1,575,663 $ 1,475,763 Other current liabilities Advance payments, billings in excess of costs incurred and deferred revenue Contract liabilities $ 14,878 $ 15,906

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	EARNINGS PER SHARE The Company computes basic and diluted earnings per share amounts based on net income for the periods presented. The Company uses the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period to calculate basic earnings per share, or EPS. Diluted EPS adjusts the weighted average number of shares outstanding to include the dilutive effect of outstanding common stock options and other stock-based awards. The Company currently has outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. Unvested Class A Restricted Common Stock holders are entitled to participate in non-forfeitable dividends or other distributions. These unvested restricted shares participated in the Company's dividends declared and were paid in the first and second quarters of fiscal 2022 and 2021. As such, EPS is calculated using the two-class method whereby earnings are reduced by distributed earnings as well as any available undistributed earnings allocable to holders of unvested restricted shares. A reconciliation of the income used to compute basic and diluted EPS for the periods presented are as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2021 2020 2021 2020 Earnings for basic computations (1) $ 153,742 $ 135,283 $ 245,418 $ 263,951 Weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic computations 134,759,240 137,882,906 135,158,270 138,017,120 Earnings for diluted computations (1) $ 153,745 $ 135,286 $ 245,422 $ 263,958 Dilutive stock options and restricted stock 557,189 864,734 689,278 987,262 Weighted-average common shares outstanding for diluted computations 135,316,429 138,747,640 135,847,548 139,004,382 Earnings per common share Basic $ 1.14 $ 0.98 $ 1.82 $ 1.91 Diluted $ 1.14 $ 0.98 $ 1.81 $ 1.90

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
Acquisition, Goodwill and Intangible Assets	ACQUISITION, GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Acquisitions Tracepoint Holdings, LLC On September 10, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 60% equity interest in Tracepoint Holdings, LLC ("Tracepoint"), an industry-leading digital forensics and incident response company serving public and private sector clients, for cash consideration of approximately $120.0 million, net of adjustments (the "Tracepoint Transaction"). As a result of the transaction, Tracepoint and Tracepoint, LLC became wholly owned subsidiaries of Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. The acquisition complements the Company’s existing cybersecurity portfolio and expands its position in the private sector cyber market. Prior to the closing of the Tracepoint Transaction, the Company held a 40% interest in Tracepoint, which was accounted for as an equity method investment. The equity method investment associated with Tracepoint was remeasured at fair value on the closing date of the Tracepoint Transaction, resulting in a gain of $5.7 million. This gain is presented as a component of Other Income on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021. The fair value of the previously held equity method investment was determined based upon valuations of the Tracepoint business and future business outlook using projected future cash flows. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company has 120 days after closing to provide proposed post-closing working capital adjustments to the sellers which are subject to dispute. The final purchase price allocations will be completed after the underlying information has been finalized and agreed upon by the sellers and the Company. The Company recognized $90.5 million of intangible assets which primarily consists of channel relationships. Channel relationships were valued using the excess earnings method discounted cash flow approach, incorporating Level 3 inputs as described under the fair value hierarchy of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 820, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). These unobservable inputs reflect the Company's own judgment about which assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset on a non-recurring basis. The intangible asset is expected to be amortized over the estimated useful life of 10 years. The goodwill of $95.2 million is largely attributable to Tracepoint's specialized workforce. Liberty IT Solutions, LLC On June 11, 2021, the Company acquired Liberty IT Solutions, LLC ("Liberty") for cash consideration of approximately $669.1 million, net of adjustments related to working capital, and transaction costs incurred as part of the acquisition, including compensation expenses paid by the Company that were associated with employee retention. As a result of the transaction, Liberty became a wholly owned subsidiary of Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. Liberty is a leading digital partner driving transformation across the federal IT ecosystem. The acquisition complements the Company’s digital transformation portfolio resulting in a deeper range of advanced technology solutions. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company has 120 days after closing to provide proposed post-closing working capital adjustments to the sellers which are subject to dispute. The final purchase price allocations will be completed after the underlying information has been finalized and agreed upon by the sellers and the Company. The Company recognized $309.0 million of intangible assets which consist of programs and contracts assets, and were valued using the excess earnings method discounted cash flow approach, incorporating Level 3 inputs as described under the fair value hierarchy of Topic 820. These unobservable inputs reflect the Company's own judgment about which assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset on a non-recurring basis. The intangible assets are expected to be amortized over the estimated useful life of 12 years. The goodwill of $346.5 million is primarily attributable to Liberty's specialized workforce and the expected synergies between the Company and Liberty. Purchase Price Allocation The following table summarizes the cumulative consideration paid and the preliminary allocation of the purchase price paid for Tracepoint and Liberty: Cash consideration (gross of cash acquired and including net adjustments) $ 789,108 Fair value of non-controlling interest 79,997 Total purchase consideration 869,105 Purchase price allocation: Cash 9,096 Current assets 57,562 Operating lease right-of-use asset 2,532 Other long-term assets 2,495 Intangible assets 399,500 Current liabilities (41,216) Operating lease liabilities-current (1,017) Operating lease liabilities-long term (1,516) Total fair value of identifiable net assets acquired $ 427,436 Preliminary goodwill $ 441,669 The acquisitions of Liberty and Tracepoint were accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires the total acquisition consideration to be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on an estimate of the acquisition date fair value, with the difference reflected in goodwill. The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and based on valuation estimates and assumptions. The accounting for business combinations require estimates and judgments regarding expectations of future cash flows of the acquired business, and the allocations of those cash flows to identifiable tangible and intangible assets. The estimates and assumptions underlying the preliminary valuations are subject to collection of information necessary to complete the valuations (specifically related to projected financial information) within the measurement periods, which are up to one year from the respective acquisition dates. Although the Company does not currently expect material changes to the initial value of net assets acquired, the Company continues to evaluate assumptions related to the valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Any adjustments to our estimates of purchase price allocation will be made in the periods in which the adjustments are determined, and the cumulative effect of such adjustments will be calculated as if the adjustments had been completed as of the acquisition dates. Adjustments recorded during the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 were not material to our results from operations. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has not finalized the determination of fair values allocated to various assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, accounts receivable, intangible assets, property, plant, and equipment, other current and long-term assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and goodwill. Pro forma results of operations for these acquisitions in the aggregate are not presented because these acquisitions are not material to the Company's condensed consolidated results of operations. Goodwill As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, goodwill was $2,022.8 million and $1,581.2 million, respectively. The increase in the carrying amount of goodwill was attributable to the Company's acquisitions of Liberty and Tracepoint, and the majority of goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

("Booz Allen Hamilton"), Booz Allen Hamilton Investor Corporation ("Investor"), and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of Booz Allen Hamilton, entered into the eighth amendment (the "Eighth Amendment") to the Credit Agreement dated as of July 31, 2012, as amended (the "Existing Credit Agreement" and, as amended, the "Credit Agreement"), with certain institutional lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. The Eighth Amendment added an additional tier in the pricing grid and extended the maturity applicable to both the Term Loan A ("Term Loan A") and revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") to June 24, 2026, increased the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Facility and the letter of credit sublimit thereunder, and made certain other amendments to the financial covenants and other terms under the Existing Credit Agreement. The interest rate and maturity date applicable to Term Loan B ("Term Loan B" and, together with Term Loan A, the "Term Loans") remained unchanged. As of September 30, 2021, the Credit Agreement provided Booz Allen Hamilton with a $1,273.6 million Term Loan A, a $382.3 million Term Loan B, and a $1,000.0 million Revolving Credit Facility, with a sub-limit for letters of credit of $200.0 million (collectively, the "Secured Credit Facility"). As of September 30, 2021, the maturity date of Term Loan B was November 26, 2026. Booz Allen Hamilton’s obligations and the guarantors’ guarantees under the Credit Agreement (the "Guarantee") are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets (including capital stock of subsidiaries) of Booz Allen Hamilton, Investor, and the subsidiary guarantors, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement and related documentation. Subject to specified conditions, without the consent of the then-existing lenders (but subject to the receipt of commitments), the Term Loans or the Revolving Credit Facility may be expanded (or a new term loan facility or revolving credit facility added to the existing facilities) by up to (i) the greater of (x) $909 million and (y) 100% of consolidated EBITDA of Booz Allen Hamilton, as of the end of the most recently ended four quarter period for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to the Credit Agreement plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount under which pro forma consolidated net senior secured leverage remains less than or equal to 3.50:1.00. At Booz Allen Hamilton’s option, borrowings under the Term Loan A and the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest based either at LIBOR (adjusted for maximum reserves, and subject to a floor of zero) for the applicable interest period or a base rate (equal to the highest of (i) the administrative agent’s prime corporate rate, (ii) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (iii) three-month LIBOR (adjusted for maximum reserves, and subject to a floor of zero) plus 1.00%), in each case plus an applicable margin as determined by the pricing grid, payable at the end of the applicable interest period and in any event at least quarterly. The applicable margin for Term Loan A and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility ranges from 1.125% to 2.00% for LIBOR loans and 0.125% to 1.00% for base rate loans, in each case based on Booz Allen Hamilton’s consolidated total net leverage ratio. Unused commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to a quarterly fee ranging from 0.175% to 0.35% based on Booz Allen Hamilton’s consolidated total net leverage ratio. Booz Allen Hamilton also agreed to pay customary letter of credit and agency fees. The applicable margin for Term Loan B is 1.75% for LIBOR loans and 0.75% for base rate loans. Booz Allen Hamilton occasionally borrows under the Revolving Credit Facility in anticipation of cash demands. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, Booz Allen Hamilton did not access its Revolving Credit Facility. For the six months ended September 30, 2021, Booz Allen Hamilton accessed $60.0 million of its Revolving Credit Facility, which was both borrowed and repaid in June 2021. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2020, Booz Allen Hamilton did not access its Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, there was no outstanding balance on the Revolving Credit Facility. The Credit Agreement requires quarterly principal payments of 1.25% of the stated principal amount of Term Loan A until maturity, and quarterly principal payments of 0.25% of the stated principal amount of Term Loan B until maturity. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants include limitations on the following, in each case subject to certain exceptions: (i) indebtedness and liens; (ii) mergers, consolidations or amalgamations, liquidations, wind-ups or dissolutions, and disposition of all or substantially all assets; (iii) dispositions of property; (iv) restricted payments; (v) investments; (vi) transactions with affiliates; (vii) change in fiscal periods; (viii) negative pledges; (ix) restrictive agreements; (x) line of business; and (xi) speculative hedging. The events of default include the following, in each case subject to certain exceptions: (a) failure to make required payments under the Secured Credit Facility; (b) material breaches of representations or warranties under the Secured Credit Facility; (c) failure to observe covenants or agreements under the Secured Credit Facility; (d) failure to pay or default under certain other material indebtedness; (e) bankruptcy or insolvency; (f) certain Employee Retirement Income Security Act, or ERISA, events; (g) certain material judgments; (h) actual or asserted invalidity of the Guarantee and collateral agreements or the other security documents or failure of the guarantees or perfected liens thereunder; and (i) a change of control. In addition, Booz Allen Hamilton is required to meet certain financial covenants at each quarter end, namely consolidated net total leverage and consolidated net interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, Booz Allen Hamilton was in compliance with all financial covenants associated with its debt and debt-like instruments. For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, interest payments of $5.6 million and $5.8 million were made for Term Loan A, respectively, and $1.8 million and $1.9 million were made for Term Loan B, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, interest payments of $10.5 million and $12.7 million were made for Term Loan A, respectively, and $3.6 million and $4.1 million were made for Term Loan B, respectively. Borrowings under the Term Loans, and if used, the Revolving Credit Facility, incur interest at a variable rate. In accordance with Booz Allen Hamilton’s risk management strategy, between April 6, 2017 and April 4, 2019, Booz Allen Hamilton executed a series of interest rate swaps. As of September 30, 2021, Booz Allen Hamilton had interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $700.0 million. These instruments hedge the variability of cash outflows for interest payments on the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility. The Company's objectives in using cash flow hedges are to reduce volatility due to interest rate movements and to add stability to interest expense (see Note 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements). Senior Notes On June 17, 2021, Booz Allen Hamilton issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amounts of its 4.000% Senior Notes due July 1, 2029 (the “Senior Notes due 2029”) under an Indenture, dated as of June 17, 2021, among Booz Allen Hamilton, certain subsidiaries of Booz Allen Hamilton, as guarantors (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), and Wilmington Trust, National Association (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 17, 2021, among Booz Allen Hamilton, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The Senior Notes due 2029 and the related guarantees are Booz Allen Hamilton’s and each Subsidiary Guarantors’ senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of Booz Allen Hamilton’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ existing and future senior indebtedness and rank senior in right of payment to any of Booz Allen Hamilton’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ future subordinated indebtedness. The net proceeds from the sale of the Senior Notes due 2029 were used to fund the acquisition of Liberty and to pay related fees and expenses. Interest is payable on the Senior Notes due 2029 semi-annually in cash in arrears on July 1 and January 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2022. In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes due 2029, the Company recognized $6.5 million of issuance costs, which were recorded as an offset against the carrying value of debt and will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the Senior Notes due 2029. Interest on debt and debt-like instruments consisted of the following: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2021 2020 2021 2020 (In thousands) (In thousands) Term Loan A Interest Expense $ 5,234 $ 5,722 $ 10,463 $ 12,640 Term Loan B Interest Expense 1,805 1,894 3,606 4,108 Interest on Revolving Credit Facility — — 25 799 Senior Notes Interest Expense 11,781 5,505 19,340 9,989 Amortization of Debt Issuance Cost (DIC) and Original Issue Discount (OID) (1) 1,165 1,106 2,294 2,176 Interest Swap Expense 4,087 5,364 9,530 9,805 Other 182 196 266 505 Total Interest Expense $ 24,254 $ 19,787 $ 45,524 $ 40,022 (1) DIC and OID on the Term Loans and senior notes are recorded as a reduction of long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and are amortized ratably over the life of the related debt using the effective rate method.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivatives	DERIVATIVES The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk related to its variable rate debt. The Company’s objectives in using these interest rate derivatives, which were designated as cash flow hedges, are to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and reduce volatility of interest expense. The aggregate notional amount of all interest rate swap agreements was $700.0 million as of September 30, 2021. The swaps have staggered maturities, ranging from June 30, 2022 to June 30, 2025. These swaps mature within the last tranche of the Company's floating rate debt (November 26, 2026). The floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps involve the exchange of variable interest amounts from a counterparty for the Company making fixed-rate interest payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount and effectively convert a portion of the variable rate debt into fixed interest rate debt. Derivative instruments are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet on a gross basis at estimated fair value. As of September 30, 2021, $15.2 million was classified for both other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2021, $17.2 million and $21.0 million were classified as other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. For interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges, the changes in the fair value of derivatives is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, or AOCL, net of taxes, and is subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the period that the hedged forecasted interest payments are made on the Company's variable-rate debt. The effect of derivative instruments on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships Location of Gain or Loss Recognized in Income on Derivatives Amount of (Loss) or Gain Recognized in AOCL on Derivatives Amount of (Loss) or Gain Reclassified from AOCL into Income (1) 2021 2020 2021 2020 Interest rate swaps Interest expense $ (381) $ (408) $ (4,087) $ (5,364) (1) The reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income was reduced by taxes of $1.1 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Six Months Ended September 30, Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships Location of Gain or Loss Recognized in Income on Derivatives Amount of (Loss) or Gain Recognized in AOCL on Derivatives Amount of (Loss) or Gain Reclassified from AOCL into Income (2) 2021 2020 2021 2020 Interest rate swaps Interest expense $ (1,775) $ (6,795) $ (9,530) $ (9,805) (2) The reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income was reduced by taxes of $2.5 million and $2.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Over the next 12 months, the Company estimates that $15.2 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense. Cash flows associated with periodic settlements of interest rate swaps will be classified as operating activities in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company is subject to counterparty risk in connection with its interest rate swap derivative contracts. Credit risk related to a derivative financial instrument represents the possibility that the counterparty will not fulfill the terms of the contract. The Company mitigates this credit risk by entering into agreements with credit-worthy counterparties and regularly reviews its credit exposure and the creditworthiness of the counterparties.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes	6 Months Ended

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	INCOME TAXES The Company’s effective income tax rates were 23.0% and 22.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively, and 22.9% and 23.3% for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our effective tax rates for these periods differ from the federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the inclusion of state and foreign income taxes and permanent rate differences, which are predominantly related to certain executive compensation and the accrual of reserves for uncertain tax positions, offset by research and development tax credits, excess tax benefits for employee share-based compensation, and the Foreign Derived Intangible Income deduction. The Company is currently contesting tax assessments from the District of Columbia Office of Tax and Revenue ("DC OTR") for fiscal years 2013 through 2015. The assessment relates to $11.7 million of taxes, net of federal tax benefits, as of September 30, 2021. During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company received notification that the District of Columbia Office of Administrative Hearings ruled in favor of the DC OTR. The Company is currently appealing the decision with the District of Columbia Court of Appeals. The Company intends to continue to vigorously defend this matter. As a result of the ruling in favor of the DC OTR, the Company made an $8.6 million payment related to these assessments, consisting of $3.7 million of tax related to fiscal 2014 and 2015, as well as $4.9 million of penalties and interest. This payment was made under protest and, given the Company's belief that it will be recovered, the payment has been recorded as a long term income tax-receivable (a component of other long-term assets) on its condensed consolidated balance sheet. There has been no impact to income tax expense during fiscal 2022 related to this payment. The Company has taken similar tax positions with respect to subsequent fiscal years. As of September 30, 2021, the Company does not maintain reserves for any uncertain tax positions related to the contested tax benefits related to 2013 through 2015, nor does it maintain reserves for the similar tax positions taken in the subsequent fiscal years. If an adverse final resolution were to occur with respect to uncertain tax positions related to the contested tax benefits or the similar tax positions taken for fiscal years 2013 through 2020, the total potential future tax expense that would arise would be approximately $40.2 million to $55.0 million, net of federal benefits. The Company maintained reserves for uncertain tax positions of $70.5 million and $62.9 million as of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively, $11.1 million of which is reflected as a reduction to deferred taxes with the remaining balance included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2021, the Company's reserves for uncertain tax positions are related entirely to research and development tax credits. During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company received a notice from the IRS that the Company's fiscal years 2016, 2017, and 2019 were selected for examination. The Company will continue to evaluate its reserves for uncertain tax positions in conjunction with the IRS examination, and as of September 30, 2021 does not believe any modifications to the previously recorded reserves are necessary.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	6 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTSThe accounting standard for fair value measurements establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1); inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions (Level 3). A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The financial instruments measured at fair value in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets consist of the following: Recurring Fair Value Measurements Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Long-term deferred compensation plan asset (1) 19,263 — — 19,263 Total Assets $ 19,263 $ — $ — $ 19,263 Liabilities: Contingent consideration liability (2) $ — $ — $ 1,223 1,223 Current derivative instruments (3) — 15,183 — 15,183 Long-term derivative instruments (3) — 15,225 — 15,225 Long-term deferred compensation plan liability (1) 19,263 — — 19,263 Total Liabilities $ 19,263 $ 30,408 $ 1,223 $ 50,894 Recurring Fair Value Measurements Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Long-term deferred compensation plan asset (1) 14,142 — — 14,142 Total Assets $ 14,142 $ — $ — $ 14,142 Liabilities: Contingent consideration liability (2) $ — $ — $ 1,223 $ 1,223 Current derivative instruments (3) — 17,163 — 17,163 Long-term derivative instruments (3) — 20,999 — 20,999 Long-term deferred compensation plan liability (1) 14,142 — — 14,142 Total Liabilities $ 14,142 $ 38,162 $ 1,223 $ 53,527 (1) Investments in this category consist primarily of mutual funds whose fair values are determined by reference to the quoted market price per unit in active markets multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs. These assets represent investments held in a consolidated trust to fund the Company's non-qualified deferred compensation plan and are recorded in other long-term assets and other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. (2) The Company recognized a contingent consideration liability of $3.6 million in connection with its acquisition of Aquilent in fiscal 2017. As of both September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability was $1.2 million, and was valued using probability-weighted cash flows, which is based on the use of Level 3 fair value measurement inputs. (3) The Company’s interest rate swaps are considered over-the-counter derivatives and fair value is estimated based on the present value of future cash flows using a model-derived valuation that uses Level 2 observable inputs such as interest rate yield curves. See Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges. We did not have any material items that were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2021, with the exception of the assets and liabilities acquired through the acquisitions of Liberty and Tracepoint (see Note 5). The fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, which are Level 1 inputs, approximated its carrying values at September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021. The fair value of the Company's debt instruments approximated its carrying value at September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021. The fair value of debt is determined using quoted prices or other market information obtained from recent trading activity of each debt tranche in markets that are not active (Level 2 inputs). The fair value is corroborated by prices derived from the interest rate spreads of recently completed leveraged loan transactions of a similar

Commitments and Contingencies	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Letters of Credit and Third-Party Guarantees As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the Company was contingently liable under open standby letters of credit and bank guarantees issued by our banks in favor of third parties that totaled $8.2 million and $9.8 million, respectively. These letters of credit and bank guarantees primarily support insurance and bid and performance obligations. At both September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, approximately $0.9 million of these instruments reduced the available borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. The remainder is guaranteed under a separate $20.0 million facility, originally established in fiscal 2015 and most recently increased to $20.0 million in fiscal 2021, of which $12.7 million and $11.1 million were available to the Company at September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively. Government Contracting Matters - Provision for Claimed Indirect Costs For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, approximately 98% and 97% of the Company's revenue was generated from contracts where the end user was an agency or department of the U.S. government, including contracts where the Company performed either as a prime contractor or subcontractor, and regardless of the geographic location in which the work was performed. For the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, approximately 98% and 97% and of the Company's revenue, respectively, was generated from such contracts. U.S. government contracts and subcontracts are subject to extensive legal and regulatory requirements. As noted in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, in the ordinary course of business, agencies of the U.S. government, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), audit the Company’s claimed indirect costs and conduct inquiries and investigations of our business practices with respect to government contracts to determine whether the Company's operations are conducted in accordance with these requirements and the terms of the relevant contracts. Management believes it has recorded the appropriate provision for claimed indirect costs for any audit, inquiry, or investigation of which it is aware that may be subject to any reductions and/or penalties. As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the Company had recorded liabilities of approximately $276.9 million and $263.2 million, respectively, for estimated adjustments to claimed indirect costs based on its historical DCAA audit results, including the final resolution of such audits with the Defense Contract Management Agency, for claimed indirect costs incurred subsequent to fiscal 2011, and for contracts not yet closed that are subject to audit and final resolution. Litigation Our performance under U.S. government contracts and compliance with the terms of those contracts and applicable laws and regulations are subject to continuous audit, review, and investigation by the U.S. government, which may include such investigative techniques as subpoenas or civil investigative demands. Given the nature of our business, these audits, reviews, and investigations may focus, among other areas, on various aspects of procurement integrity, labor time reporting, sensitive and/or classified information access and control, executive compensation, and post government employment restrictions. We are not always aware of our status in such matters, but we are currently aware of certain pending audits and investigations involving labor time reporting, procurement integrity, and classified information access. In addition, from time to time, we are also involved in legal proceedings and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business, including those relating to employment matters, relationships with clients and contractors, intellectual property disputes, and other business matters. These legal proceedings seek various remedies, including claims for monetary damages in varying amounts, none of which are considered material, or are unspecified as to amount. Although the outcome of any such matter is inherently uncertain and may be materially adverse, based on current information, we do not expect any of the currently ongoing audits, reviews, investigations, or litigation to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, there were no material amounts accrued in the condensed consolidated financial statements related to these proceedings. As previously disclosed in Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements of the

Accounting Estimates	Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Areas of the financial statements where estimates may have the most significant effect include the provision for claimed indirect costs, valuation and lives of tangible and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets, accrued liabilities, revenue recognition, including the accrual of indirect costs, bonus and other incentive compensation, stock-based compensation, reserves for uncertain tax positions and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, provisions for income taxes, postretirement obligations, collectability of receivables, and loss accruals for litigation. Actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially from management's estimates.
Recently Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2020, the SEC issued Release No. 33-10890, Amendments to Management's Discussion and Analysis, Selected Financial Data, and Supplementary Financial Information , to simplify, modernize and enhance certain financial disclosure requirements in Regulation S-K. This amendment became effective on February 10, 2021. The Company’s adoption is expected to impact fiscal 2022 Form 10-K disclosures. Other accounting and reporting pronouncements effective after September 30, 2021 and issued through the filing date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

These assets represent investments held in a consolidated trust to fund the Company's non-qualified deferred compensation plan and are recorded in other long-term assets and other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. (2) The Company recognized a contingent consideration liability of $3.6 million in connection with its acquisition of Aquilent in fiscal 2017. As of both September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability was $1.2 million, and was valued using probability-weighted cash flows, which is based on the use of Level 3 fair value measurement inputs. (3) The Company’s interest rate swaps are considered over-the-counter derivatives and fair value is estimated based on the present value of future cash flows using a model-derived valuation that uses Level 2 observable inputs such as interest rate yield curves. See Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges.
