Overview
This two-day classroom course is a true workshop with hands-on examples and exercises to help contractors and government acquisition personnel develop and decompose a Statement of Work (SOW), whether it be from a Request for Proposal or an Invitation for Bid. We will work through many examples of SOWs throughout the two days. In addition, it will provide the fundamental skills to write work statements, whether it be a Prime or Subcontractor. The Statement of Work (SOW) forms the foundation of any contract. It describes just what the customer needs the contractor to accomplish. As a result, understanding the customer’s needs and the resources to meet them is paramount to establishing and managing cost, schedule, and performance. 

Who should attend:
  • Newly hired professionals in all government contracting roles at all levels and all sizes of organizations
  • Businesses and organizations who are exploring or have acquired a government contract either as a prime contractor or as a subcontractor
  • Individuals who evaluate government solicitations to make a bid/no-bid decision
  • Individuals who write or review work statements
Learning Objectives:
After completing this course, you will be able to:
  • Know the basic federal acquisition contract structure
  • Analyze different types of work statements to determine the government’s requirements
  • Identify data delivery requirements embedded within the work statements
  • Understand basic contract types and how they relate to the different types of work statements
  • Evaluate risk as it relates to different types of work statements
  • Decompose actual requirements into their component parts and relate them to a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) to enable work statement development
