The current government contracting environment

Luke Levasseur and Keeley McCarty, partners at Fox Rothschild, join host Roger Waldron on this week’s Off the Shelf for an in-depth discussion of the current government contracts compliance, bid protest, and regulatory environment.

Levasseur and McCarty discuss the interplay between the Civil False Claims Act and the Trump administration’s focus on DEI, including the potential impact of the new DEI clause.

They also talk about current bid protest trends and the “loser pays” provision in the FY2026 NDAA.

Finally, Levasseur and McCarty share some initial impressions regarding the RFO.
