Federal Contracting Fundamentals: Understanding Coverage Thresholds, Compliance Issues, and Ethics Requirements

This foundational webinar series will guide HR professionals, procurement officials, and employment counsel through fundamental compliance topics and risks that arise when an organization does business directly with the federal government or subcontracts with a prime contractor. In the first webinar, the speakers will discuss how a company can determine whether it qualifies as a federal contractor or subcontractor for purposes of statutory, regulatory, and FAR compliance obligations. The speakers will outline best practices for ensuring compliance and highlight potential legal pitfalls to watch out for in the current contactor landscape. Additionally, this webinar will provide an overview of key ethics and compliance obligations for federal contractors, including procurement ethics, mandatory disclosure and reporting, cybersecurity, cost accounting, and organizational conflicts of interest.
