| basics of government contracting training: Government Contracting William Sims Curry, 2016-08-05 The second edition of Government Contracting: Promises and Perils picks up where the first edition’s mission left off: exposing fraud, incompetence, waste, and abuse (FIWA) and analyzing corruption, mismanagement, and ineptitude that defile government contracting. The first edition thoroughly outlined procurement throughout the contracting cycle including initial planning, contractor selection, contract administration, contract closeout, and auditing. This significantly revised new edition provides additional much-needed guidance on contracting documents, management tools, and processes for addressing negative influences on government contracting, including an improved approach to evaluating proposals. Specific guidance for avoiding FIWA is provided for government officials and employees, government agencies, and government contractors, and practical solutions to problems faced by individuals and organizations involved in government contracting are intended for both practitioner and pedagogical applications. The Government Procurement Corruption Wall of Shame that was introduced in the first edition to illustrate contracting perils such as conflicts of interest, duplicity, favoritism, incompetence, kickbacks, and protests is continued in the second edition, and cases illustrating the existence of FIWA in government contracting have been thoroughly updated. Contracting documents and contract management tools are provided on a website designed to accompany the book. Written at the graduate level and specifically intended for state, local, federal, and international government procurement activities, this textbook is required reading for public procurement, contract management, business, and public administrations courses. |

| basics of government contracting training: The Complete Guide to Government Contract Types Kenneth R. Segel, 2016-04-01 Everything You Need to Know About Government Contract Types As the world's single largest buyer of goods and services, the federal government has many ways to structure its procurements. Different situations and conditions often determine the best vehicle for a particular purchase. Contracting officers must assess a wide range of factors to determine which contract type will provide the government the best value and the least risk. The Complete Guide to Government Contract Types provides a comprehensive overview of the key government contract vehicles and types: fixed-price, cost-reimbursement, incentive, and other (which includes letter, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity, and time-and-material contracts). The author first explains the selection process for contract vehicles, which is the basis for selecting the appropriate contract type for the work in question. He then presents a comprehensive, in-depth analysis of each contract type, explaining how each works best to meet certain types of requirements and conditions. This is an essential resource for both contracting officers and contractors seeking to understand and work effectively within the nuances of contract selection and compliance. |

| basics of government contracting training: The Pig Book Citizens Against Government Waste, 2013-09-17 The federal government wastes your tax dollars worse than a drunken sailor on shore leave. The 1984 Grace Commission uncovered that the Department of Defense spent $640 for a toilet seat and $436 for a hammer. Twenty years later things weren't much better. In 2004, Congress spent a record-breaking $22.9 billion dollars of your money on 10,656 of their pork-barrel projects. The war on terror has a lot to do with the record $413 billion in deficit spending, but it's also the result of pork over the last 18 years the likes of: - $50 million for an indoor rain forest in Iowa - $102 million to study screwworms which were long ago eradicated from American soil - $273,000 to combat goth culture in Missouri - $2.2 million to renovate the North Pole (Lucky for Santa!) - $50,000 for a tattoo removal program in California - $1 million for ornamental fish research Funny in some instances and jaw-droppingly stupid and wasteful in others, The Pig Book proves one thing about Capitol Hill: pork is king! |

| basics of government contracting training: Govcon Launch Eric COFFIE, 2020-10-22 The government and all of its respective agencies are in a war to spend, more and more money. With policies like use it or lose it and our military industrial complex it's no wonder why we've have been on a spending tear since World War II. To make matters more attractive to small businesses (as defined by Small Business Administration rules) the United States is consistently spending huge sums of money with new suppliers. They continuously develop programs that foster small business growth, encourage corporate expansion and at times outright market monopolization. You as an individual reading this book have the ability to come into the government spending market and become a dominant player, but only if you know how to get to your product/service into the hands of government buyers. GovCon launch will:oGovcon Launch will uncover many of the false narratives surrounding government contracts and how to turn those into your greatest allies. oGovcon Launch will show you take advantage of FREE resources to land contracts during and after a global pandemic. oGovcon Launch provides you with a framework that will advance your government contracting journey, moving you one step closer to winning an evergreen customer aka government client Companies who win at the game of government contracting, stay curious, express continued interest, start with a single target, learn the rules, remain flexible and adapt as required. Congratulations on your decision to pick up a copy of the Govcon Launch. You're about to gain in depth insight and practical knowledge into the highly lucrative yet often misunderstood world of landing government contracts and working with the biggest, financially stable and often most complex customer in the world. By complex, I mean someone or something doing activities that do not fall in line with conventional guidelines or standard commercial practices. To a foreigner with little experience in this arena, the procurement rules, policies, buying vehicles, agencies, acronyms reflect a cobweb of connecting lines with no start or end point. As you enter the corn maze, your confusion grows, and you are presented with a labyrinth of options from local; state to federal, GSA to 8(a). The names swell, the acronyms swell, the choices balloon, and the starting point becomes foggier and grows distant. I realized these points from the moment I set foot into this marketplace back in 2007, looking for direction. Today in this book, I will be sharing: my personal journey, experiences, habits for success, learning experiences, tools used, and lessons mastered. All of my learning was experiential, which forced me to take a long, hard, bumpy and often not so fun path towards winning contracts. I hope that by sharing my experiences that when you finish this book, you can: 1)Determine if government contracting is right for you2)Figure out a starting point for your journey3)Create an action plan for your business 4)Know the activities that will lead to your success5)Become inspired to start doing business in this marketplace If I help you accomplish any one of the five objectives above or all five, then I have done my job in writing this book. This book does not reflect a complete timeline of my story nor will it reveal every single step I took. Yet, I decided to pull out the parts of the stories that would serve most useful in explaining concepts and theories to the reader. Since I am a visual person, I wanted to write so people could conceptualize the big picture in their head. This is both my hope and my goal. |

| basics of government contracting training: How to Get Government Contracts Olessia Smotrova-Taylor, 2012-11-28 How to Get Government Contracts demystifies the process of how a company can enter the government market, win its first and subsequent contracts, and then grow itself into a multi-million-dollar government contractor within a couple of years. It offers an insider’s view into the latest best practices that government contractors use to succeed in an increasingly competitive market, and it shows exactly how your company can apply these techniques to build a strong business. Many companies venture into the government market with a certain naiveté and pay a hefty price to find out that there is much more to winning a contract than writing last-minute proposals in response to publicly posted solicitations. To stop the bleeding of precious resources, they need to step back to learn how professionals win business in the federal arena. This book shows you how to find, for example, the best potential customers and opportunities for your company. It also explains the secret to winning consistently by conducting pre-proposal preparation (also called capture) and practicing a disciplined, process-based approach to proposal development. This book provides a recipe for winning government contracts over and over again, the way seasoned government contractors do it. After reading this book, you will know exactly what to do to position your company to win a government proposal before a solicitation becomes public, including building customer relationships, gathering intelligence, developing a win strategy, performing competitive analysis, selecting the best teammates, and developing a solution. As a result, you will apply professional techniques to organizing your proposal effort, outlining a proposal document, and writing RFPs that persuade evaluators to award the contract to you. |
