Export Controls for Government Contractors

Government contractors, particularly those providing services and commodities to US or foreign defense and intelligence customers, navigate a myriad of national security related regimes, each with its own set of definitions and requirements, from obligations related to the handling of U.S. government data, to the provision of supply chain certifications, to the restrictions on exports of technical data, services, and commodities under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). In this cross-over session of our Export Control Classroom series, our Government Contractors colleagues will join us as we focus on how contractors can identify the key national security related considerations at the outset of an opportunity, and steps for establishing a compliance program to support successful contract performance.
