Tighter state and local budgets have also led to emphasis on increased transparency in procurement and greater attention to fraud, waste and abuse, including increased enforcement of state and local False Claims Acts. Likewise, tough economic times have led to heightened use of bid protests.
Finally, exciting procurement technologies are raising cutting edge issues and new policy objectives, focusing on the environment, are leading state and local governments to look for ways to conduct more "green" procurements at a time when the recovering economy might make that difficult. This program points out these new issues and challenges and help you scale new heights in state and local procurement. Like a bracing cup of java, each session is an invigorating, balanced blend of perspectives offered by procurement officials, government attorneys, industry members, and private practice attorneys.
Topics covered include:- Are bid protests on the rise during slow economic times?
- Why some legal grounds for protest rise to the top and others sink
- A fair and balanced discussion of hot legal topics in state and local protests from both the state and the vendor perspective
