Government Contract Administration: August 2, 9, 16, 2023; 2:00-3:30pm ET

Okay, the government has awarded you a contract.  What happens now?  Our popular Contract Administration training is now available virtually with live instruction over the course of 3 weeks/sessions.  This course focuses on the major aspects of contract administration, and the working relationship between the government and the contractor. We will address the rules governing directed and constructive changes, requests for equitable adjustments and claims, delays, inspection and acceptance, terminations for convenience and default, contract closeout, compliance requirements, and best practices in contract administration.
