Triple Whammy: Agencies Flunk Price Evaluations
Client Alert | 1 min read | 07.30.15
With the government's increased focus on price in the face of tightening budgets, GAO has also increased its focus on price evaluations by agencies. In recent weeks, disappointed offerors have successfully challenged (1) the Air Force's price reasonableness and price realism analysis in KWR Constr. Inc., (2) the VA's failure to meaningfully evaluate price realism—despite an express statement requiring it in the solicitation—in B&B Med. Servs., Inc., and (3) the Air Force's unequal treatment of the protester's labor rates when performing price realism analysis in Cubic Applications, Inc.

New Jersey Expands FLA Protections Effective July 2026: What Employers Need to Know
The New Jersey Family Leave Act (NJFLA) entitles eligible employees to up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per 24-month period for bonding with a new child, caring for a seriously ill family member, or responding to certain public health emergencies. The law covers employers with 30 or more employees worldwide, and employees must have at least one year on the job and 1,000 hours worked in the preceding 12 months to qualify. Unlike the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), the NJFLA does not cover an employee’s own serious health condition, but instead pairs with New Jersey’s Temporary Disability Insurance (TDI) and Family Leave Insurance (FLI) programs, which provide partial wage replacement — funded through employee payroll contributions — when employees are out on qualifying leave.
