Webinar Event! October 1, 2024 – Limitations on Subcontracting and the Nonmanufacturer Rule hosted by Texas El Paso APEX Accelerators

Posted on by

For small businesses and their teammates, few topics in government contracting are as confusing as the limitations on subcontracting for set-aside and socioeconomic sole source contracts.  And if that isn’t stressful enough, the “LoS” is an area with heavy potential penalties if a contractor gets it wrong.

The nonmanufacturer rule is the flip side of the LoS, but for supply contracts in the federal government contracting realm. It is also one we encounter quite often in our role assisting federal contractors.

In this course, Greg Weber and I will help you make sense of the limitations on subcontracting and nonmanufacturer rule. Using a step-by-step process and plenty of examples to help bring the rules to life will help you ensure that you understand and comply with these essential rules. We hope you will join us at 10:00 am MDT on October 1. Register here.

Please join Federal government contracts attorneys John Holtz and Stephanie Ellis for this informative webinar, hosted by the Catalyst Center for Business & Entrepreneurship, on June 5 at 10:00 am CDT.

The SBA’s Mentor Protege Program allows two or more businesses to come together and form a joint venture to bid on small business set-aside government contracts. One of the most advantageous aspects of this program is the ability for a large business to mentor a small business through the use of a joint venture. When a large business mentors a small business, the SBA approved joint venture can obtain and perform small business set-aside contracts despite the size of the large business. Join us as we discuss the recent changes in the SBA’s Mentor Protege Program and explore how you can use this program as a tool for scaling your business (whether large or small). Register here.
