In 2026, that story runs through FAR 15.404-1, CAS applicability, FAR Part 31 cost allowability, and cost realism, and contractors who can’t connect their pricing to solid accounting evidence are losing awards or getting burned post-award. This session gives you a practical framework for building pricing that’s competitive going in and defensible coming out.\nIn this session, you’ll learn how to:\n\nBuild a pricing strategy that is competitive, explainable, performable, billable, and defensible\nUnderstand how FAR 15.404-1, CAS, FAR Part 31, and cost realism affect proposal pricing and cost support\nAnswer RFP accounting-system questions and support small-business CAS exemptions with the right evidence\nStrengthen SF1408 / Accounting System Narrative readiness with practical cost accounting documentation\nProperly segregate direct, indirect, and unallowable costs for cleaner pricing, billing, and audit support\nDevelop indirect rate structures that support both competitive bids and contract execution\nEvaluate accounting system choices based on GovCon growth goals, contract type, reporting needs, and compliance expectations\nImprove proposal files with stronger BOEs, rate support, subcontractor analysis, CMMC cost planning, and review trails\nConnect proposal pricing decisions to execution, billing, incurred-cost support, and audit readiness\nApply current 2026 pricing and compliance updates to your next government contract price\n\nWhether you’re preparing your first cost proposal or tightening up rate structures ahead of an audit, this webinar will help you make pricing decisions you can explain, back up, and execute against with confidence.\nWho should attend: Contracts, proposal, pricing, and finance professionals at small and mid-size government contractors, whether you’re refining an existing pricing process or building your accounting infrastructure to support growth.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]\n
