Responding to Shifting Federal Enforcement in Government Contracting
Through a series of executive orders, DOJ memorandums, and new task forces, enforcement priorities have shifted—sometimes in unexpected ways.
While some anticipated a lighter enforcement touch, recent trends reveal a marked increase in certain actions, particularly those targeting federal procurement, creating new compliance challenges and areas of risk for government contractors.
This webinar provided an in-depth analysis of new federal enforcement actions—including the Galeotti and Shumate memorandums, the evolving Corporate Enforcement Policy, whistleblower incentives, and recent executive orders—while also addressing ongoing priorities such as the Civil-Cyber Fraud Initiative and the Procurement Collusion Strike Force.
Attendees gained insights from recent high-profile cases, including the Brett Sanborn plea, United States v. Georgia Tech, and the FedRAMP indictment, and learned about emerging compliance concerns and areas of risk, such as corporate initiatives, representations and certifications, compliance program effectiveness, supply chain management, and antitrust exposure. The discussion highlighted key sectors under scrutiny, including cybersecurity, the 8(a) program, and tariff and customs compliance, and concluded with actionable guidance for government contractors on cooperation, continuous compliance, and the importance of transparency and truthfulness in all federal dealings.
