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

Paul welcomes special guest Larry Leffler of Leffler Consulting (https://www.lefflerconsulting.com) to discuss the federal budget process.  Listen and learn:

When does the budgeting process start? 
Who is involved in the budgeting process? 
How does a program budget request feed the system to result in funds being appropriated and authorized?
How do agencies/offices/programs prioritize the budget that is allowed to them?
What happens if a program doesn't start on time?
What happens if their is a program overrun?  (or underrun?)
How does the way a budget request is structured and worded impact the program's flexibility in spending these dollars?

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. As former government Contracting Officers who have also walked in industry's shoes, Kevin and Paul share their perspectives in support of the podcast mission:  Make government contracts better, one contract at a time. 

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
