SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Avoiding Common Bid Protest Mistakes

SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Provisional Billing Rates
DESCRIPTION:Enter the code: 52VBOCR20 when you register! \nWhen government contractors perform work on cost-reimbursable contracts\, the finesse to recover indirect costs accurately\, avoid significant under- or over-billing\, and manage cash flow are paramount to being successful. Provisional billing rates (PBRs) establish the billing rates applied during contract performance and serve as the cornerstone for interim cost recovery\, yet the process of establishing\, submitting\, monitoring\, and updating them can be overlooked. Additionally\, PBRs are the cornerstone for making changes to your indirect rate structure to improve the allocation of indirect rates to final cost objectives. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Indirect Costs and Rates
DESCRIPTION:Enter the code: 52VBOCR20 when you register! \nIndirect costs are a critical component of government contract accounting\, yet many contractors struggle to understand how these costs are defined\, grouped\, and recovered.

Participants will explore common cost pools like fringe\, overhead\, and G&A\, learn how to select the appropriate allocation base\, and walk through rate development and analysis to support accurate pricing and contract management. Additionally\, we will explore when creating a subcontractor handling rate would be advantageous. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Financial Freedom Comes at a Price! It’s Your Wrap Rate
DESCRIPTION:Enter the code: 52VBOCR20 when you register! \nIf you’ve ever worried whether your pricing covers all your costs\, or struggled to figure out how low you can go without sinking your margins\, this webinar is for you.

SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Understanding the Berry Amendment\, GOVOLOGY: Buy American Act (BAA)\, Trade Agreements\, and the Nonmanufacturer Rule
DESCRIPTION:USE CODE 52VBOCR20 WHEN YOU REGISTER! \nWhether you’re new to government sales or have been selling to federal agencies and the Department of Defense for years\, the landscape is changing. For the past 60 years\, the United States has increasingly outsourced and offshored manufacturing—but that’s shifting. Today\, government statutes and regulations are moving toward rebuilding a more domestic supply chain. \nWith the rise of strategic sourcing and category management\, it’s critical to understand how the Buy American Act (BAA) and the Non-Manufacturer Rule (NMR) apply to both full and open competitions and set-aside procurements. For example\, as of October 2023\, the domestic component threshold increased to 65%. If your company has been selling to the government for years\, these updated regulations may affect your competitiveness and market share. \nREGISTER HERE
