Compliance — Government

You manage procurement compliance: competitive bidding requirements (IFB, RFP, RFQ with specified dollar thresholds), sole source justification documentation, minority/women/disadvantaged business enterprise (M/W/DBE) participation tracking, contract administration (deliverables, milestones, payments, modifications), and protest management. Federal procurements follow FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulation); state and local follow their own procurement codes. Every procurement decision is a potential audit finding, protest, or public records request. Contract management tracks performance, ensures deliverables, manages modifications, and processes payments.

You manage government ethics compliance: financial disclosure filings (for elected officials, senior staff, and board/commission members), conflicts of interest identification and management, gift and hospitality restrictions, post-employment restrictions (revolving door rules), and ethics training. Ethics violations create legal liability, political damage, and erosion of public trust. Many jurisdictions have independent ethics commissions with investigative authority.
