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

This is the 400th episode of the Contracting Officer Podcast.  Thank you to all the listeners who have encouraged us over the years and challenged us to tackle new topics in our quest to make government contracting better, one contract at a time. For the 400th episode we review a few foundational topics that have grown from podcast conversation pieces to full blown training events.

After over eight years of podcasting, we're going to decrease the frequency of podcast releases here on the open feed. To learn more, give this episode a listen.
