WITH INCREASING U.S. AND LOCAL COMPLIANCE RISKS, AUDITS AND SECURITY THREATS, THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A MORE CRUCIAL TIME TO ATTEND THIS CONFERENCE! As your organization operates amid difficult and expedited timeframes for winning and managing wartime contracts,
it is critical to properly address the very unique U.S. and local compliance challenges affecting your bottom line, as well as the security of your personnel. Amid rapid policy and regulatory changes, you need to stay on top of the latest developments toward preventing
harsh civil and criminal penalties, adverse DCAA audit findings, and
lost business opportunities.
Failing to optimize your contract and
subcontract management can delay you from receiving support or materials, jeopardize your profitability, increase your organization s exposure, and heighten the risk
of injury or death of your employees.
American Conference Institute s National Summit on
Iraq and Afghanistan Contracting is the only event that will provide you with comprehensive U.S. and local insights on minimizing the legal, compliance and security risks affecting your operations on the ground. At this unique, must-attend event, you will get up to speed on U.S. and local requirements and customs from a faculty of U.S. and foreign speakers, including
senior government officials,

win and perform contracts.
