Bid protests are an important tool to assist in shaping procurements—both at the solicitation and award stages.  However, the protest process differs significantly from standard litigation and knowing the “rules of the road” is essential to protect your rights and effectively advocate for your position.  

In this webinar, experienced bid protest practitioners, Amy O’Sullivan, Anuj Vohra, Olivia Lynch, and Cherie Owen discuss some of the most common mistakes contractors make with respect to the bid protest process, and how to avoid them.  The webinar will include a discussion of how to identify protest filing deadlines, including the various factors that affect timeliness.  Attendees will also learn about the various protest forums and the considerations impact forum selection, as well as other common mistakes that both protesters and contract awardees make that can impact their ultimate chances of winning (or retaining) a contract award.

An ELI Public Webinar - Understanding the Basics of Extended Producer Responsibility in the United States

To reduce waste and encourage recycling, an increasing number of international, federal, and local jurisdictions are embracing extended producer responsibility (EPR) laws, which have wide-reaching compliance implications for product manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and other entities falling within the varying definitions of “producers.” EPR laws assign covered producers greater responsibility for the full lifecycle of their products and establish mandatory requirements for reporting, source reduction, and financial contributions to third-party entities, known as producer responsibility organizations. EPR requirements apply to a variety of consumer product categories, including batteries, electronics, mattresses, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and, most recently, packaging and paper products.
