The lifespan of a joint venture is a frequently asked question that can be hard to find in SBA’s regulations if you don’t know where to look. Alternatively, people hear about the “two-year rule” and assume that’s the answer. This question comes up frequently because, like many topics in federal contracting, the answer requires some digging into the regulations and specifically the affiliation rules.
Happy New Year, SmallGovCon readers! As we look forward to the new updates, decisions, and commentary in 2025, it’s also a good time to reflect on the important and well-read posts from 2024.
This post revisits our most popular blog posts from 2024. Below, we summarize the blogs written in 2024 that were the most visited as well as the perennial favorites from years past that were the most viewed in 2024. It’s a good chance to look back on the important articles from 2024, and those topics of continuing interest to federal contractors.
Koprince McCall Pottroff LLC is a premier small business and federal government contracts firm in Lawrence, Kansas. The management team is pleased to announce that Gregory Weber has been promoted to the role of Senior Associate Attorney.
Greg quickly integrated himself into the fabric of our firm, and working with federal contractors has become second nature to him. In response to the announcement, Greg said, “I am thrilled to be given this opportunity to further help our clients and work within the federal contracting community. Koprince McCall Pottroff has a great tradition of excellence and I am proud to be a part of it.”
Greg draws on his experience working for a number of large organizations. In those roles, he became adept at communicating complicated legal and regulatory concepts to clients. This skill translated nicely into the federal contracting world. Greg is hardworking to a fault and always puts providing client value and outstanding client communications at the top of his list. He is equally skilled at litigation (including at SBA, ODRA, and the Court of Federal Claims) and transactional matters (including small business, socioeconomic certifications, and teaming relationships).
Greg is a great attorney and advocate for the federal contractors that our firm serves. The promotion is well deserved!
We are excited to announce that Gregory Weber and his wife, Melissa, along with big brother Isaac, have a new family member! Gabriel Weber was born on January 17, 2023, weighing 7lbs. 13 oz. Everyone is doing well.
We’d like to take this opportunity to wish our readers a very happy holiday season! We appreciate you and we will keep striving, in 2023, to provide useful updates and information to the federal government contracting community. Season’s greetings!
In our line of work, we regularly litigate protests, claims, appeals, etc., against the Government. But often, procuring and contracting issues can be resolved without the need for litigation–via a little-known method we like to call “talking things out with your CO.” There are also some important things to keep in mind regarding contract performance communications. This article is the last of three articles aimed at providing helpful tips for communicating with your contracting officer. Part 1, which focused on pre-solicitation and solicitation communications, can be found here. And Part 2, which focused on proposal submission communications, can be found here. This article will focus on contract performance communications.
