I would like to thank two special persons for their support. First and foremost, to my dear wife, Gayla, for her continuing love and encouragement. She was with me every night (and many days) as I worked on this text. I also express my appreciation to my late wife of 25 years, Ann Feldman, who was a wonderful helpmate during our marriage, even in the final stages of her cancer.

PREFACE

_________

Contracting with the federal government is an important part of American economic life. The United States spends billions of dollars every year on the procurement of supplies, services, and construction. But government contracting also has unique problems and pitfalls. So, while many companies have become successful by concentrating most of their efforts on doing business with the federal government, either as a prime contractor or subcontractor, others have not fared as well.

The Government Contracts Nutshell, Fifth Edition, is intended to highlight the essential elements and principles of government contracting regarding both contract formation and contract administration. It provides the reader with a foundation for understanding how government procurement works in formal and informal ways. Ideally, this treatment will enable students to become familiar with the fundamentals of government contracting in a relatively short time.

As its title indicates, this text is a Nutshell, and not a full analysis of all contracting doctrines and procedures. Thomson Reuters has several multi-volume treatises devoted to this subject. Government contracting is a field filled with laws and regulations and countless significant legal decisions VI and is rife with protests, disputes and litigation. It is also a field in constant flux and has changed in major ways since the publication of the Fourth Edition of this book in 2004. Indeed, almost every chapter has been largely rewritten since the prior edition. Chapter numbering follows the coverage in the applicable part of the Federal Acquisition Regulation, the guidepost of federal executive branch contracting.

Although the Nutshells primary audience is the student of federal government procurement, those with contracting experience should also find it of value. The text has been organized to parallel the events that someone would probably experience as a government contractor or as a government contracting official or other procurement professional. For them, the book will serve as a guide to specific areas with which they may be unfamiliar and as a useful reference in those areas where they are already knowledgeable.
