It’s a complex landscape to navigate.
Whether you’re selling directly to the federal government, through a reseller, or as a subcontractor, commercial item contracting isn’t as simple as estimating a price and signing a contract.
A number of obligations can give rise to claims and disputes, as well as financial and reputational risk. Commercial item contractors have to analyze and document their pricing practices. Sometimes, they need to alter the way they operate and monitor their subcontractors and supply chain. They also may need to monitor sales/pricing practices differently and change how they report or how they manage their commercial business.
Fortunately, Baker Tilly knows the way forward. Companies from a wide variety of industries manage their federal government businesses in an efficient and profitable manner with the help of Baker Tilly.
Much of our work involves mining and analyzing historical data to develop Commercial Sales Practice (CSP) disclosures or quantify historical pricing compliance risk. But that’s just the tip of the Baker Tilly GSA contract and VA FSS contract iceberg.
