If you work in the Government acquisition world, this podcast is for you. (not just for Contracting Officers!)

Cost proposals for Government contracts can be quite different than a proposal or quote in the commercial world. How do you build a price for a Government proposal?

Kevin and Paul discuss the basic elements that make up a cost proposal. Depending on what is being acquired, contract type, and other variables you may have to provide details for every element of cost that is included in your price.

Learn why the Government requires supporting information for these details and why it is important for the Government to understand the burden placed on contractors (and Government proposal evaluators!) with every supporting detail they request in the RFP.

Kevin Jans and Paul Schauer created the Contracting Officer Podcast to help Government and Industry acquisition professionals understand more about how the other side thinks. Admittedly, the podcast’s name sounds very limiting. It is not just for contracting officers or even just for those in the contracting profession. Anyone with an interest in the Federal acquisition world can benefit from the insight and down-to-earth explanations of complicated topics provided by the hosts.
