REAs, Claims and Disputes - Session 4 - Introduction to Government Contracts Series 2024
Introduction to Government Contracts Webinar Series - 2024
In this session, we will identify what to do when things go "wrong" during performance of a Government contract. We will discuss the circumstances under which a request for an equitable adjustment (REA) to the contract should be made, and what to do if the request is not granted. We will outline the dispute resolution process, with particular focus on how to make a proper claim to a Government Contracting Officer, and what obligations the contractor and Government have during that process. Finally, we will cover the appeals process, including a discussion of the unique fora available for disputes arising from Government contracts. Learning Objectives: By the end of this session, students will be able to: Identify when a change to the contract should be the subject of an REA, and will know how to correctly prepare such requests. Understand the contract disputes resolution process. Evaluate the pros and cons of pursuing a claim through the appeals process.

I liked how the instructor could relate stories from experience to the topics he discussed. It helped with the clarification of the material he presented. He is very good at "teaching." I would recommend this class.
—Jill, Senior Contract Manager
The instructor was phenomenal. Great instruction amplified by relevant and varied experience, and he was engaging. Would definitely like to take a course with FPS again.
—Hope, Director of Contracts
Federal Publications offerings are some of the best I have ever attended. I attended my first in DC, the Basics of Government Contracting, back in the early 1990s. Fond memories!
