SUMMARY:Evolving DoD Contractor Cybersecurity Requirements (Q3-2025 Update)
DESCRIPTION:The United States’ adversaries are actively stealing the country’s military and industrial competitive advantage. Ubiquitous access to every organization’s multi-interconnected information systems facilitates this theft. The US Federal government recognizes the risk of theft and sensitive information from its contractors’ information systems\, such as Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Therefore\, all Federal contractors have certain basic cybersecurity requirements they must implement in their internal information technology (IT) systems that process Federal contract-related data.

SUMMARY:Avoiding Common Bid Protest Mistakes

SUMMARY:Provisional Billing Rates
DESCRIPTION:When government contractors perform work on cost-reimbursable contracts\, the finesse to recover indirect costs accurately\, avoid significant under- or over-billing\, and manage cash flow are paramount to being successful. Provisional billing rates (PBRs) establish the billing rates applied during contract performance and serve as the cornerstone for interim cost recovery\, yet the process of establishing\, submitting\, monitoring\, and updating them can be overlooked. Additionally\, PBRs are the cornerstone for making changes to your indirect rate structure to improve the allocation of indirect rates to final cost objectives.

SUMMARY:Financial Freedom Comes at a Price! It’s Your Wrap Rate (2025 Update)
DESCRIPTION:Are you confidently pricing your services for government contracts—or are you flying blind? \nIf you’ve ever worried whether your pricing covers all your costs\, or struggled to figure out how low you can go without sinking your margins\, this webinar is for you. Join us as we unpack the wrap rate—a critical but often misunderstood formula that can make or break your business in the federal marketplace. \nYour wrap rate isn’t just a number—it’s a strategic tool. It represents the true\, fully burdened cost of your labor\, accounting for fringe\, overhead\, and G&A expenses. It’s the key to crafting a competitive yet profitable proposal\, tailored to the work you’re pursuing\, the contract type\, and the intensity of competition. And here’s the twist: your wrap rate is not static—it evolves as your business grows\, your cost structure changes\, and your bidding strategies mature.

SUMMARY:Understanding the Berry Amendment\, Buy American Act (BAA)\, Trade Agreements\, and the Nonmanufacturer Rule (2025 Update)
DESCRIPTION:Whether you’re new to government sales or have been selling to federal agencies and the Department of Defense for years\, the landscape is changing. For the past 60 years\, the United States has increasingly outsourced and offshored manufacturing—but that’s shifting. Today\, government statutes and regulations are moving toward rebuilding a more domestic supply chain. \nWith the rise of strategic sourcing and category management\, it’s critical to understand how the Buy American Act (BAA) and the Non-Manufacturer Rule (NMR) apply to both full and open competitions and set-aside procurements. For example\, as of October 2023\, the domestic component threshold increased to 65%. If your company has been selling to the government for years\, these updated regulations may affect your competitiveness and market share. \nIf you’re unsure how BAA\, NMR\, and trade agreements impact your business\, this is a must-attend session. We’ll break down the Buy American Act\, Trade Agreements Act\, the Berry Amendment\, the Non-Manufacturer Rule\, and show you how to quickly determine which ones apply to you. We’ll also cover key regulatory updates\, the differences between manufacturers and distributors\, common pitfalls for small businesses\, and share several real-world case studies. \nThe session is led by Mr. Frank\, a nationally recognized expert in aligning government sales with business strategy. A #1 bestselling author\, public speaker\, and emcee for the National Veterans Conference\, he is widely regarded as one of the top GovCon small business experts in the country. His training is consistently rated as real-world\, highly educational\, and thought-provoking. \nWho Should Attend: \n\nSmall business owners currently selling to the federal government or seeking to enter the market\nManufacturers and distributors wanting to understand how domestic preference rules affect eligibility and competitiveness\nGovernment contractors impacted by Buy American\, Trade Agreements\, or the Non-Manufacturer Rule\nBusiness development and compliance professionals responsible for navigating federal procurement regulations\nCompanies selling to the Department of Defense (DoD) or other federal agencies under set-aside or full-and-open contracts\nLongtime government vendors needing to adapt to recent regulatory changes\, such as the increased domestic content threshold\n\nIn short\, this webinar is for any business involved—or looking to get involved—in federal contracting and needing clarity on domestic sourcing rules and compliance.
