Public Procurement Law: RFPs and Liability Allocation Terms

When:  Apr 27, 2021
Description:
This CLE will look at legal issues in non-federal competitive sealed proposal (RFP) processes along with one of the most contentious issues-liabilty allocation terms. We'll identify key differences from federal contracting and trace liability allocation terms through the RFP process during the proposal, discussion, and proposal revision stages. The presentation will also highlight related issues in the Colorado Procurement Modernization Act, HB17-1051, and why and how the act revises traditional procurement practices. Local government, education, and other political subdivision practices will also be discussed.
