When he’s not tooling around the National Capital region on his motorcycle, Tom Temin interviews federal executives and government contractors who provide analysis and insight on the many critical issues facing the Executive branch. The Federal Drive is found at FederalNewsNetwork.com and 1500 AM in the Washington D.C. region. A fixed-price contract. It is a common strategy for the government. Contractors need to understand that every word in that three-word phrase is there for a reason. If inflation, COVID, and/or supply-chain problems drive up your costs, tough luck. That point was reinforced in a recent lawsuit, about which Federal Drive host Tom Temin spoke about with Zach Prince, Smith Pachter McWhorter procurement attorney.
