to justify building new facilities
Typically, the government agency responsible for overseeing the design and construction of new and renovated prison facilities is the Department of Corrections or its equivalent at the state or federal level. They work with architects, engineers, and contractors to ensure that the facilities meet safety, security, and regulatory standards.
The construction standards are MAINLY in 29 CFR 1926. There are also a few General Industry standards (1910) and Administrative matters (1904) that apply to Construction- but mainly 1926.

The complete NFPA standards fill one entire shelf in my bookcase. They cover everything form basics, like standards for fire extinguishers and sprinklers, to the Life Safety Code (building construction, means of egress, emergency lighting) to construction of facilities for handling flammable liquids. It is a VERY comprehensive set of standards for anything to do with fire protection and prevention.

A typical contractor accountants job is to do taxes for people and make sure that they are correctly done to the standards of the government. This tends to be cheaper then have a tax company do them.
