Bid protests are an important tool to assist in shaping procurements—both at the solicitation and award stages.  However, the protest process differs significantly from standard litigation and knowing the “rules of the road” is essential to protect your rights and effectively advocate for your position.  

In this webinar, experienced bid protest practitioners, Amy O’Sullivan, Anuj Vohra, Olivia Lynch, and Cherie Owen discuss some of the most common mistakes contractors make with respect to the bid protest process, and how to avoid them.  The webinar will include a discussion of how to identify protest filing deadlines, including the various factors that affect timeliness.  Attendees will also learn about the various protest forums and the considerations impact forum selection, as well as other common mistakes that both protesters and contract awardees make that can impact their ultimate chances of winning (or retaining) a contract award.

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
