This is session 4 of 4 in the Successful Federal Procurement Subcontracting - Primes and Subs webinar series.

Once a U.S. Government contract is awarded and the prime contractor has identified subcontractors who can support the prime contractor’s requirements, the fun begins. Now the prime must work to satisfy its government customer while managing its subcontractors to ensure their efforts support the prime contractor’s efforts to satisfy its customer. Meanwhile, subcontractors must find a way to perform in such manner as to satisfy their customer(s), make a profit, and operate a successful business. This leads to challenges relating to Inspection, Acceptance and Warranty; Subcontract Payments; Changes; Disputes; Terminations; and more. This session will explore important performance issues and address some of the significant considerations and concerns of all three contracting parties (i.e., U.S. Government, prime contractor, and subcontractor).

Learning Objectives: This session will assist participants in anticipating contract performance issues and risks, mitigating those risks, and achieving successful performance.
