Federal Government Contracts & Procurement Practice
Every aspect of a federal government contractor’s operations – from how they procure business to how they hire and manage a workforce, as well as a myriad of other issues – is influenced by complex rules and regulations. Understanding and navigating the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) and the various agency FAR Supplements is essential to surviving, and ultimately thriving, in a hyper-competitive environment.
The core of a federal contractor’s operations is shaped by the regulatory requirements and the statutory obstacles governing performance and compliance, such as the Truth in Negotiations Act (TINA), DCAA’s Contract Audit Manual, the False Claims Act, the Fraud Enforcement Recovery Act (FERA) and the Contract Disputes Act (CDA). Securing equitable treatment and fairness under these regulatory and statutory regimes requires legal counsel experienced in the nuances of procurement processes and the key players.
