Why You Need to Know About Non- FAR Contracts
Information
The FAR (federal acquisition regulation) is the overarching set of regulations that inform any federal contract. The clauses are designed for goods and services that are commercially available and typically offered to the general public. But what about new technologies or solutions that are not yet available to the general public? To streamline the process, federal agencies have the option of using non-FAR-based contracts when partnering with innovative firms. If you are developing new technology and you want to sell to a federal agency, you need to know about all the contracting options available so you know how to proceed. This workshop will review contracting strategies in layman's terms, direct you to resources, and help you decide if this avenue is for you.
