Over the past two weeks, the U.S. Government has issued policy statements and Executive Orders with far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Some federal government agencies have already directed contractors and grant recipients to stop work, while others have already begun to de-scope contracts, and issue termination notices. The U.S. Government has also announced new tariffs on goods coming from Canada, Mexico, and China. The impacts of these policy directives and their implementation are significant – for private companies, non-profits, and universities.
In this webinar, Crowell & Moring lawyers specializing in U.S. government contracts and grants will focus on:
- Stop Work Orders
- De-Scoping Contracts and Grants
- Partial and Full Terminations for Convenience
- The Impact of New Tariffs
Our discussion will focus on the steps that contractors and grant recipients can take now, to preserve your rights and protect the bottom line. This includes responding to and negotiating with government counterparties, providing notice where required, and how to think about cost recovery strategies for affected contractors and grant recipients.
This complimentary webinar is for government contractors only, no outside law firms or government personnel.

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.
