COVID-19 Claims and Requests for Equitable Adjustment Q&A Webinar — “Tick Tock – Submitting COVID-19 Related Claims and REAs as the Government Fiscal Year Draws to a Close”
Webinar | 09.17.20, 8:00 AM EDT - 9:00 AM EDT
For nearly 6 months, the Coronavirus pandemic has caused disruptions across nearly all industrial sectors, including the government contracting industry. As contractors have attempted to respond to challenges in providing support to government customers, meeting contract and staffing requirements, and adhering to contract terms and a constantly shifting landscape, Congress provided an additional avenue of relief to certain contractors dealing with COVID-19 related impacts. Section 3610 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) provided assistance in connection with certain disruptions in contractor performance arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, as the Government fiscal year draws to a close, many contractors are considering whether and when to submit potential Claims and REAs – including Claims and REAs triggered in part by COVID-19 related issues – and how best to position themselves to recover schedule and cost impacts triggered by COVID and non-COVID related causes.
In this webinar, Crowell & Moring attorneys with experience pursuing and resolving Claims and REAs will discuss key questions facing contractors right now:
- Common issues encountered by contractors who have experienced impacts from COVID and non-COVD related causes;
- How best to position Claims and REAs for successful resolution;
- Whether and how the end of the Government fiscal year might impact the Government’s approach to resolving Claims/REAs;
- Steps to take right now.
Please join us as we discuss these issues, and many more, as well as live questions from the webinar audience.
This program is intended for government contractors only. Please no private law firms or government employees.

The landscape of AI governance and regulation is shifting. Following the release of the White House’s “America’s AI Action Plan” in July 2025 and the President’s signing of related Executive Orders, the White House has emphasized (at least rhetorically) a preference for innovation, adoption, and deregulation. But that does not tell the entire story. The Administration remains committed to exercising a heavy hand in AI, including by banning the U.S. government’s procurement of so-called “woke AI,” intervening in the development of data centers and the export of the AI technology stack, imposing an export fee for certain semiconductors to China, and assuming a stake in a U.S. semiconductor company. State legislatures are also racing to implement their own regulations, particularly around AI’s use in critical areas, such as healthcare, labor and employment, and data privacy. The many sources of regulation raise the specter of a fragmented compliance environment for businesses. This webinar will delve into the Administration’s AI strategy, going beyond the headlines to analyze:
