Obermayer is excited to introduce its new “GovCon Examiner Live” webinar series, your resource for the fundamentals in government contracting and small business procurement. Over the course of 12 months, our experienced government contracting attorneys Maria Panichelli and Michael Richard will bring their popular GovCon Examiner blog to life with legal updates and practical tips for your business.
The Federal Acquisition Regulation – also known as the FAR – is the seminal body of regulations that governs all federal government contracting. This complex set of legal requirements governs how a company must perform its contract, how it must deal with issues that arise during performance, and how it may resolve a dispute or seek compensation. The laws also impose a host of other obligations on contractors, many of which involve severe penalties for noncompliance. As a result, it is critically important for contractors who do business with federal agencies to understand these regulations.
This webcast, led by experienced government contracting attorneys Maria Panichelli and Michael Richard, will cover the basic function and structure of the FAR. After a quick summary on the history of the FAR, we will move on to the organization and structure of the FAR, with a special focus on the regulations governing the submission and evaluation of proposals. We will also touch upon often-overlooked portions of the FAR, including FAR Part 3 (Improper Business Conflicts and Personal Conflicts of Interest); FAR Part 6 (Competition Requirements); and FAR Part 9 (Contractor Qualifications). After that, we will focus on other critical sections, including FAR Part 19 (Small Business Programs) and FAR Part 33 (Protests, Disputes and Appeals). Finally, we will discuss agency supplements to the FAR, and deviations. Learn how to navigate the FAR, how to stay in compliance with regulatory obligations, and how the FAR is interpreted and applied by the Boards and Courts.
