Bid protests play a crucial role in the federal procurement process. Whether you’re submitting a proposal, filing a protest, or defending your contract award, bid protest rulings can influence not just your current contract but also future outcomes and the broader award process. Decisions made in 2023 are no different. They have ramifications that extend beyond 2023, affecting aspects like submission deadlines and the burden of proof for protesters. 2023 decisions illustrate important considerations for government contractors, clarifying key regulations and highlighting potential trends for 2024 and beyond.
Join Katie Burrows and Eric Valle, attorneys in PilieroMazza’s Bid Protests and Government Contracts practice groups, as they discuss 2023 decisions that will shape the bid protest landscape going forward. They’ll cover:
- key decisions from 2023 and their implications;
- outcome trends to watch; and
- bid protest strategies for 2024.
