PNWC's Government Contracting Update

While performing a pro-active review of  SBIR/STTR awards (Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Technology Transfer), NASA (National Aerospace and Space Administration) found that an individual was listed as a PI (Principal Investigator) for contracts awarded to two separate companies. Investigation revealed that a group of scientists and engineers who had worked together at ATK, a defense contractor in Huntsville, Alabama, came to an agreement in 2006 with another company, Amtec, also of Huntsville, to work for Amtec with the understanding that they would eventually become their own company. These Amtec employees incorporated their own business, Scientic, Inc in 2008 and beginning in 2009 worked as dual employees of both Amtec and Scientic.

David Berteau, president and CEO of the Professional Services Council, joins Federal Drive with Tom Temin to talk about a few provisions worth keeping an eye on.
