In the complex world of government contracting, choosing the right contract pathway is key to success. This webinar offers a clear, comprehensive overview of the contracting strategies available to businesses seeking to work with federal agencies—covering both traditional Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)–based contracts and the increasingly significant non-FAR pathways.
We’ll examine the core differences, advantages, and limitations of each approach, helping you determine when to pursue a FAR-compliant contract and when a more flexible option, such as an Other Transaction Authority (OTA), may be the better fit. You’ll learn how to evaluate your project’s unique requirements, risk profile, and goals to craft a contract strategy that maximizes your chances of winning and successfully performing government work.
Learning Objectives:
- Distinguish between FAR-based and non-FAR contract pathways, identifying their core characteristics, governing regulations, and common applications in government procurement.
- Analyze the strategic implications of each pathway, including factors such as risk allocation, administrative requirements, intellectual property rights, and acquisition speed.
- Develop a foundational understanding of how to align project needs with the right contract type to support informed decision-making and a successful government contracting strategy.
Target Audience: This session is ideal for contractors, business development professionals, and anyone looking to deepen their understanding of government acquisition.
