To address the problem, Congress authorized the Department of Defense to provide relief for cost increases caused by inflation and mandated that DOD release guidance by March 23, 2023. Join Kevin Barnett and Lauren Brier, attorneys in PilieroMazza’s Government Contracts Group, for key takeaways to help contractors find contract relief in response to acute economic conditions. They’ll cover:

• understanding the DOD’s new guideline for filing a request for inflation relief under FAR Part 50 and Public Law 85-804;
