Maneuvering the Minefield: The New Ethics Compliance and Enforcement Regime Confronting Government Contractors

David H. Laufman, Partner, Kelley Drye & Warren LLP 

In an environment of new regulatory compliance demands, aggressive enforcement activity by the Department of Justice, and vigorous congressional oversight, government contractors must be increasingly vigilant that their business practices and internal control procedures meet applicable legal requirements.

Join David H. Laufman, a partner with the law firm Kelley Drye & Warren LLP, as he discusses the latest regulatory developments and enforcement and legislative trends confronting the government contractor industry and how companies should adapt their existing internal control policies and compliance programs to fully satisfy the requirements of the evolving legal climate. 

This session will explore:

  • recent and proposed changes to the Federal Acquisition Regulation;
  • trends in False Claims Act prosecutions by the Department of Justice;
  • increased investigative oversight by Congress; and
  • legislative developments regarding contractor liability abroad.
