Responding to the RFP - Session 2 - First Time as a Prime Series 2024
First Time as a Prime Webinar Series - 2024
This session will focus on how to respond to the RFP. Attendees will learn the cost/price compliance requirements for any FAR-covered contract. These requirements often surprise companies who have primarily worked with the government through subcontracts.

Attendees will also learn the challenges facing a prime regarding communicating, requesting, and receiving pricing information from subcontractors. They will also learn industry tips for understanding the RFP requirements and asking questions regarding the RFP for clarification and/or changes. Finally, attendees will discover that subcontractor cost/price submission often contain discrepancies from RFP or prime instructions - but that there are ways to minimize this risk. Learning Objectives: By the end of this session, attendees will be able to:  Know the FAR, and supplemental FAR, requirements for all prime cost/price volumes  Identify RFP-specific requirements for prime cost/price volumes  Develop a repeatable pricing process for responding to proposals as a prime contractor  Learn best practices to optimize communicating, requesting, and receiving information from subcontractors  Ensure subcontractor submissions are compliant and complete, even if they are provided as a sealed package to the government

Innovations in Govt Contracts - Automating Subcontract Compliance - The CPSR ProDocs Way
It can't be argued that adequate and complete document is one of the cornerstones of compliance in Government contracting and subcontracting. Documentation associated with the subcontracting/procurement process can be generated by various sources and address numerous compliance related topics. It is ultimately the responsibility of the Subcontracting/Procurement function to ensure that all required documentation associated with audits and compliance reviews is accomplished in a timely and accurate manner. While Subcontracting/Procurement organizations are concerned about compliance with laws, regulations, and prime contracts requirements, their senior leaderships are often focused on driving cost efficiencies across the enterprise. So, how can an organization not only streamline the creating of compliant documentation, but also automate the entire Subcontract/Procurement compliance process? This interactive session will explore how high-performance organizations utilize CPSR ProDocs Powered by JA White to automate tasks associated with processing of Subcontracts/Procurement compliance related forms, templates, models, checklists, and related tools with game-changing results. During this session, attendees will be able to experience an interactive demonstration of this compliance platform while witnessing, in real time, the power and accuracy of procurement compliance automation.
