Construction contractors that do business with the Federal Government are required to comply with a host of domestic preference statutes. These domestic preference requirements can significantly impact how a contractor approaches the performance of its construction contracts funded by Federal dollars, and noncompliance with these requirements can have severe consequences.
In this webinar, McCarter & English Government Contracting partner Cara Wulf introduces attendees to the multiplicity of, and distinctions among, “Buy American” and other domestic preference statutes, regulations, and policies. We will cover the basics of the Buy American Act, the Trade Agreements Act, implementing regulations, and the application (and waiver) of Build America, Buy America (BABA) Requirements for Federal financial assistance projects for infrastructure.
