Contracting with the federal government requires companies to operate under heightened ethical and compliance standards. At the same time, competitive intelligence and strategic business development efforts are often critical to remaining competitive in the government marketplace. Understanding where the legal and ethical boundaries exist under procurement law, however, is not always intuitive.

In this informative webinar, government contracts attorney Nicole Pottroff will break down the fundamentals of procurement integrity and explain the key ethics rules every federal contractor should understand. Attendees will gain practical insight into how ethics regulations apply throughout the contracting lifecycle and learn how to identify and avoid common compliance pitfalls that can expose organizations to significant legal and financial risk.

Topics Covered:

• Appropriate boundaries for agency communications
• Conflicts of interest
• Kickbacks and contingent fee restrictions
• False claims liability and compliance risks
• Effective internal ethics plans and compliance programs

This session is designed to help contractors better understand procurement law requirements, strengthen internal compliance efforts, and confidently navigate ethical challenges in the federal contracting environment.
