Acquisition Reform: Driving Business Opportunities during the Trump Administration
Webinar | 04.10.18, 9:00 AM EDT - 10:00 AM EDT
Changes to management priorities that come with every new administration also mean changes for those seeking to do business with the federal government. President Trump has also utilized his position and the government’s purchasing power to directly engage the private sector on spending and procurement issues. While many of these changes present opportunities, there are also risks.
The Trump Administration and the new Congress are expected to begin working on a number of issues critical to government contractors. The panel will address several of these issues, including:
- The President's Management Agenda
- Budget caps, the end of the sequester, and the appropriations landscape
- Potential provisions in the FY 2019 National Defense Authorization Act impacting the acquisition community
Panelists:
- Rob Burton, Partner, Crowell & Moring
- Brian McLaughlin, Founding Partner, Imperium Global Advisors
- Jordon Sims, Founding Partner, Imperium Global Advisors

The federal government has identified purported ‘waste, fraud, and abuse’ in small business programs as a major focus of its current enforcement efforts. As it relates to federal procurement, we have seen audits and investigations rolled out not only of active participants in the Small Business Administration’s 8(a) Business Development Program but also reviews of various types of small business contracts (such as 8(a) sole source and set-aside awards, preference-based awards, and small business set-aside awards over particular values). Join Crowell & Moring as we discuss what aspects of contract performance and teaming arrangements are being scrutinized (e.g., size/status eligibility, limitations on subcontracting compliance, reasonableness of market rates, etc.) and how these considerations can impact both small government contractors holding the prime contracts under review and their subcontractors.
