ACC NCR Pass-Through Claims: Priming Your Prime-Sub Relationship to Ease Cooperation and Avoid Pitfalls

The Panel will explore the key procedural aspects and best practices for pass-through (or ‘sponsored’) claims under the Contract Disputes Act, including:
• Ensuring adequate language on pass-through claims in negotiated subcontracts (and that your contract managers and counterparts know what it means);
• Avoiding unintended waivers of claim under the Severin doctrine;
• Structuring and maintaining appropriate prime/sub roles during the claims process; and
• Nuances and traps for the unwary in pass-through litigation.
Whether you’re experienced in pass-through claims or have only heard about them, you’re sure to come away from this event with practical knowledge for the future.

Presented by Greg Jacobs and Erin Felix, Shareholders at Polsinelli and Jon Mellis, Director and Assistant General Counsel at VMware.
