SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Foreign Ownership\, Control or Influence (FOCI) Rules for Federal Contractors
DESCRIPTION:Enter the code: VBOCR26 when you register! \nREGISTER HERE!!! \nCould foreign ownership—even indirectly—put your contracts at risk? \nIf your company performs classified work\, partners with foreign investors\, has overseas affiliates\, or is considering outside funding\, Foreign Ownership\, Control\, or Influence (FOCI) rules may apply to you. \nAnd the stakes are rising. \nIn 2026\, the Department of War (DoW) is expected to release its “Section 847” rules\, expanding FOCI principles to certain unclassified prime contracts and subcontracts valued at $5 million or more. As a result\, companies that have never had to consider FOCI may soon need to do so.

SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Evolving DoD Contractor Cybersecurity Requirements
DESCRIPTION:Enter the code: VBOCR26 when you register! \nThe United States’ adversaries are actively working to steal the nation’s military and industrial competitive advantage. Today’s ubiquitous\, highly interconnected information systems make that theft easier than ever. The U.S. federal government recognizes the risk to sensitive information housed in contractors’ systems—such as Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). As a result\, all federal contractors must implement basic cybersecurity requirements in the internal IT systems that process federal contract-related data. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Vendor Activation\, Visibility\, and Engagement Best Practices
DESCRIPTION:Enter the code: VBOCR26 when you register! \nThis course explains the core principles of vendor activation and supplier onboarding—why registration exists\, when it’s required\, when it isn’t\, and how to determine what applies to your specific contracting path.

SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Gen-AI in Government Procurement
DESCRIPTION:Enter the code: VBOCR26 when you register! \nGenerative AI can be incredibly useful—until it isn’t. Join David Timm (Co-Chair of Burr & Forman’s AI Committee and Chair of the Federal Bar Association’s Bid Protest Committee) for a candid reality check on how large language models (LLMs) behave in legal and government contracting contexts—and how to use them without getting burned. \nYou’ll learn: \n\nThe three core LLM risks: hallucinations\, sycophancy\, and privacy/privilege exposure\nWhat current performance data shows about leading chatbots’ failure rates\, and how often they repeat false information.\nGovCon examples where over-reliance on AI has led to legal sanctions\, dismissed protests\, and loss of professional credibility\nClear dos and don’ts for using AI for brainstorming and issue-spotting without compromising confidential data or falling for plausible-looking hallucinations\n\nYou’ll leave with a clear understanding of how LLMs work\, where they tend to fail\, and how to use them responsibly in GovCon and legal workflows. Walk away with practical guardrails you can apply immediately to protect sensitive information and avoid costly missteps. \nTarget Audience: Small business owners\, C-Suite executives\, proposal writers\, and in-house counsel \nREGISTER HERE
