@C5Live_Trade #C5DFARSJoin the Conversation International Trade Compliance Experts
With nearly a $600 billion budget for military
expenditure in 2016, the United States is by far the
largest market for defence companies. Securing
a contract with the Department of Defense (DoD)
can lead to years of success, steady payment and
growth for everyone within the supply chain.
In order to be in the running for one of these
highly lucrative contracts, companies need to
stay on top of the latest changes to DFARS and
ensure their contracts, systems and processes
reflect new requirements
Cyber security is at the forefront of concern for
governments world wide. In order to better protect
technology, the DoD recently published the new
Network Penetration Reporting and Contract for
Cloud Services interim rule. By December 2017,
companies must, at a minimum, meet the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
Special Publication (SP) 800-171 standards or have
an alternative security system approved.
At the same time, the new Better Buying Power
(BBP) 3.0 is being finalised. The US government is
looking to get the best gain for its money. As currently
written, along with other changes, this new version
of BBP will increase the burden on companies for

»	 Network with the European defence
industry
getting Independent Research and Development (IR&D)
and Contracted Research and Development (CR&D)
projects approved along with other changes. Those that
want to gain new contracts need to have an action plan
in place to compensate for these upcoming changes or
get left behind.
Benefits of a DoD contract can vanish without strict
compliance to the Federal Acquisition Regulations
(FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations
Supplement (DFARS)
Foreign companies that are part of DoD contracts must
juggle various accounting standards from multiple
countries,meettherequirementsoftheTruthinNegotiations
Act (TINA) and flow down FAR and DFARS clauses to
sub-contractors. Anything less than meeting the high
standards of the Defense Contract Management Agency
(DCMA) and Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) can
lead to suspension of payment and hefty fines.
Preparing for DCMA or DCAA audits is essential for
any company contracting with the US Department of
Defense. The focus of an audit will vary and you need to
be prepared for anything. Find out how to meet changing
FAR and DFARS requirements and successfully pass a
DCAA audit at C5’s 5th

  • 2. @C5Live_Trade #C5DFARSJoin the Conversation International Trade Compliance Experts With nearly a $600 billion budget for military expenditure in 2016, the United States is by far the largest market for defence companies. Securing a contract with the Department of Defense (DoD) can lead to years of success, steady payment and growth for everyone within the supply chain. In order to be in the running for one of these highly lucrative contracts, companies need to stay on top of the latest changes to DFARS and ensure their contracts, systems and processes reflect new requirements Cyber security is at the forefront of concern for governments world wide. In order to better protect technology, the DoD recently published the new Network Penetration Reporting and Contract for Cloud Services interim rule. By December 2017, companies must, at a minimum, meet the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication (SP) 800-171 standards or have an alternative security system approved. At the same time, the new Better Buying Power (BBP) 3.0 is being finalised. The US government is looking to get the best gain for its money. As currently written, along with other changes, this new version of BBP will increase the burden on companies for Why you can’t miss the event: » Find out how to bring your cyber security system up to speed with the NIST requirements » Take home leading strategies for preparing for DCAA audits » Gain top tips for complying with R&D requirements under the upcoming Better Buying Power 3.0 » Hear how both primes and subs master flow-down requirements under DFARS » Find out how to fight a corrective action » Benchmark with experts and peers » Network with the European defence industry getting Independent Research and Development (IR&D) and Contracted Research and Development (CR&D) projects approved along with other changes. Those that want to gain new contracts need to have an action plan in place to compensate for these upcoming changes or get left behind. Benefits of a DoD contract can vanish without strict compliance to the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations Supplement (DFARS) Foreign companies that are part of DoD contracts must juggle various accounting standards from multiple countries,meettherequirementsoftheTruthinNegotiations Act (TINA) and flow down FAR and DFARS clauses to sub-contractors. Anything less than meeting the high standards of the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) and Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) can lead to suspension of payment and hefty fines. Preparing for DCMA or DCAA audits is essential for any company contracting with the US Department of Defense. The focus of an audit will vary and you need to be prepared for anything. Find out how to meet changing FAR and DFARS requirements and successfully pass a DCAA audit at C5’s 5th Advanced Forum on US Defence Contracting and DFARS Compliance in Europe.
