National Contract Management Association Boston Chapter—Annual March Workshop

5.12.2020

McCarter & English invites you to register for the National Contract Management Association Boston Chapter’s 59th Annual March Workshop on Wednesday, March 11, 2020, at Bentley University in Waltham, MA. We are proud to sponsor this event, which features presentations from three attorneys in our Government Contracts & Global Trade Practice.

The event features as its keynote speaker Sheila Heen, Harvard Law School Lecturer and Co-author of the New York Times Business Bestseller Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most, and a special update on the implementation of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) by Stacy Bostjanick, Director of CMMC Policy, Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment.

Sessions Presented by McCarter & English:

Session 1: 8:00–9:15 a.m.

2019 Roundup of Key Agency Actions in CFIUS, Export Controls and Global Trade & What to Expect in 2020

This course will cover regulatory action taken by the Departments of Defense, Justice, Commerce, State and Treasury, and discuss the impact of each and the path forward.

Zack Hadzismajlovic, Partner, Government Contracts & Global Trade Group, McCarter & English, LLP

Rethinking the Subcontract Form: Getting to an Agreement That Is Commercially Reasonable and Fair to Both the Prime and Sub

In this interactive session, we will toss out the form subcontracts occupying our websites and e-folders and work together to examine anew language necessary to protect both parties without overreach and unacceptable risk. We’ll start with your views on what terms and conditions should be included and by the end, reach the goal of peace, harmony and love between primes and subs.

Dan Kelly, Partner, Government Contracts & Global Trade Group, McCarter & English, LLP

Session 2: 1:20–2:35 p.m.
Other Transaction Authority (OTA) Roundtable

Other Transaction Authority (OTA) is the term commonly used to refer to the (10 U.S.C. 2371b) authority of the Department of Defense (DoD) to carry out certain prototype projects. Pursuant to the 2016 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) Section 845, the DoD currently has permanent authority to award “Other Transactions” (OT) (10 U.S.C. 2371) in certain circumstances for prototype projects that are directly relevant to weapons or weapon systems proposed to be acquired or developed by the DoD. OTs may be used for basic, applied, advanced research and prototype projects when it has been determined that it is in the Government’s best interest to enter into an agreement that is not a contract, grant or cooperative agreement. In this session, we’ll explore the variety of OT vehicles used by various agencies and military departments within DoD and the similarities and differences with FAR-based procurements, and address special issues of concern to OT participants. We will conclude with a panel discussion.

John Nunziato, Vice President, SOSSEC Inc.

Dan Kelly, Partner, Government Contracts & Global Trade Group, McCarter & English, LLP

Session 3: 2:45–4:00 p.m.

Requests for Equitable Adjustments (REAs) and Certified Claims for Government Contractors

This session will provide contractors with an overview of the differences and similarities between REAs and Certified Claims in US federal government contracting. The course will include discussion of the strategies and contents of each and an overview of the processes and the Contract Disputes Act.
