Unfortunately there is no "compiler" that can turn a set of R scripts into an executable such as mcc does for MATLAB. My suggestion would be to turn pack your scripts up into a R package that could be easily installed on other computers that are running R. You might be able to convince your boss that this approach would be quicker and cheaper than paying for the work to be translated into another programming language.
