Government Contractors and Grantees
Securing funding from public sources is often
the best choice for both established and emerging growth
companies. However, competition is steep because of the
popularity and openness of opportunities for these
funds. Partnering with governments, whether through tax
credits, direct grants, public private partnership (PPP)
initiatives or other programs also involves significant compliance
and reporting requirements that must be managed to ensure the
smooth flow of funds, and limit risk exposure to companies that
receive those resources.
From the initial stages of project planning
through to negotiation of contract award and compliance, our team
of professionals offers substantial experience to private sector
clients and non-profit entities that seek funding from public
sources. When the need arises, our disputes practice
encompasses disputes relating to contract performance, contract
award controversies (bid protests), regulatory and accounting
issues, civil and criminal False Claims Act investigations and
litigation, and disputes between prime and subcontractors. We
have also successfully developed governmental programs and
developed RFP’s and invitations for those programs for public
sector clients.
We work in partnership with our clients to
identify potential funding sources, ensure that responses to
governmental invitations are crisp, technically sound, and
structured to meet the demanding requirements of public sector
contracting and grants, and work with legislatures to direct
funding to our client’s proposed initiatives.
