Jumping Through Governmental Hoops: A Primer on Transportation Companies Contracting with Uncle Sam
This seminar will provide direct and real work insights related to government contracting and international trade regulatory compliance. The government is not only the major transportation regulator, it is also one of the largest customers of transportation services spread out amongst multiple agencies at different levels and in different countries. This seminar will provide an overview of major government contracting issues related to contract compliance, to include application of socio-economic requirements, Procurement Integrity Act, False Claims Act, M&A due diligence, and traditional breach of contract issues. Further, our speakers will discuss new developments related to government subcontracts and utilization small-business preferences, such as 8(a) and new Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business requirements. Finally, attendees will also receive information related to international trade regulatory compliance, including new trends related to anti-corruption (FCPA/UK Bribery Act), denied parties (OFAC), and international supply chain logistics security (C-TPAT) issues.
