What, When, Where and How to Protest Federal Procurements

      May 15, 2008   1:00-4:00 PM  Tower Club, Vienna VA

The fourth in our very popular series of Federal contractor seminars.
 

Here's a roadmap of the Federal procurement protest process, discussing the working rules, procedures and substantive and procedural requirements of the various protest forums. Learn "when to file where" - the agency, the General Accountability Office, the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, or the SBA. Discuss the preaward and postaward debriefing rules in negotiated procurements. Gain practical advice on what, when, where and how to protest Federal procurements from our experienced expert! 

 

"The course was well organized and informative. Tolle is
