• Understanding the Federal Acquisition Regulation and knowing when and how to use it for your benefit and protection
• Preparing quality control and safety programs that comply with federal regulations and processes
• Determining when a change order is required and how to price and properly process
• Identifying a claim and knowing how to process it
