This is session 1 of 9 in the Procurement University webinar series.

In this session, we will introduce the students to the federal marketplace, the acquisition process, and the regulatory environment that surrounds it all. We will examine the various procurement vehicles that contractors utilize to fulfill their obligations to the US Government. We will also guide students through contract pricing and cost allowability to protect the interests of both the contractor and the federal government as well as help the contractor recuperate the costs associated with each contract.

Learning Objectives: By the end of the webinar you should be able to:

Have a basic understanding of the federal acquisition process;
Understand the regulatory environment that surrounds the federal marketplace;
Identify the various procurement methods and contract types;
Determine the allowability of contract costs; and
Recognize the principles of contract pricing and the techniques of determining a fair and reasonable price.
