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.
