Professor Ralph C. Nash Jr. wrote the book on government contract changes. Here is an opportunity to spend two days with Professor Nash on this core course in Government Contracts and work through the most definitive and comprehensive coursebook in print on this subject.

Course will include full coverage of the Changes Clause:

What it really means
What triggers it
Determining its impact on profit
Each party's rights
Strategies for effective contract administration
Other equitable relief
Securing prompt & equitable payment
Calculating the cost of the change

If you know government contracts, you know the significance of changes. If you don't know government contracts, but are becoming involved, you had better know the significance of changes. For there is no doubt that the overwhelming number of operating problems and claims arising out of Government contracts center around questions of actual or constructive changes in the work. The contractors know this . . . the government knows this. . . attorneys, accountants and professional representatives for both camps know this. . .and you (we are sure) know this.

However, no matter how keen your sense of awareness, or how advanced your level of knowledge, government contract changes is a subject about which you can never know enough. Because it is so active, so volatile, so prone to almost-daily development, that failure to pay it constant court can render your knowledge obsolete. Or, looking at it from the opposite angle, a dedicated effort to "keep current," without periodic reevaluations of the subject as a whole, can lead to the cliché-situation of having forgotten more than you know.

These are the reasons why Federal Publications developed this special course: Changes & Equitable Adjustments In Government Contracts. These . . . plus requests by attendees at many of our programs for "more" on changes.
