Problems and Pitfalls in Contracting with the Government
How to navigate increased legal and ethical scrutiny in today's environment

As a government contractor with a state or federal contract, you understand the importance and significance the contracts have on your bottom line. You are in a unique position in this troubled economic climate. You have the security of knowing your services or products will be needed, and you know the rate at which you will be compensated for them but, would your organization fare as well if you no longer had your government contract?

State Term Contract procedures are changing. Ohio Ethics Laws make it more difficult to build relationships with decision makers. You need to know the rules and how to follow them. This seminar will help you wade through government red tape, avoid uncomfortable situations, and provide you with peace of mind if an investigator knocks on your door.
