Understanding the Berry Amendment, Buy American Act (BAA), Trade Agreements, and the Nonmanufacturer Rule

Whether you’re new to government sales or have been selling to federal agencies and the Department of Defense for years, the landscape is changing. For the past 60 years, the United States has increasingly outsourced and offshored manufacturing—but that’s shifting. Today, government statutes and regulations are moving toward rebuilding a more domestic supply chain.

The session is led by Mr. Frank, a nationally recognized expert in aligning government sales with business strategy. A #1 bestselling author, public speaker, and emcee for the National Veterans Conference, he is widely regarded as one of the top GovCon small business experts in the country. His training is consistently rated as real-world, highly educational, and thought-provoking.
