Bid protests are an unavoidable part of federal contracting and are becoming more frequent as competition intensifies. Often, the outcome of litigation is influenced by what happens before a protest is even filed. To improve your chances of success, it is essential to avoid common pitfalls in the bidding process and to develop a solid understanding of how the protest process works. Knowing the rules, regulations, and timelines that govern bid protests is key to protecting your company’s opportunities.

In this course, government contracting attorneys John Holtz and Gregory Weber will walk participants through the most common mistakes contractors make during the protest process—and how to avoid them.

Topics will include:

• The difference between size/status protests and bid protests
• What a pre-bid protest is and why it matters
• Key deadlines for filing protests and how debriefs can affect them
• The fundamentals of a debrief
• Frequent pitfalls that undermine protest success
