Government Regulatory & FAR Counseling

The Federal Acquisition Regulation and its agency supplements constitute one of the most complex regulatory systems in American law. For government contractors, understanding not just what the rules say but how agencies interpret and apply them in practice is essential to both compliance and competitive success.

Berry & Partners provides practical FAR counseling to government contractors on the full range of regulatory questions that arise in contract performance — cost allowability and allocability, small business subcontracting requirements, domestic preference requirements (Buy American Act, Trade Agreements Act, Berry Amendment), labor standards compliance, and the growing body of socioeconomic and sustainability requirements in federal contracting.

Our attorneys have applied these regulations from inside companies — advising purchasing departments, pricing teams, and program managers on day-to-day compliance questions. That operational experience shapes how we deliver regulatory counsel: practical, specific, and calibrated to what the client actually needs to do.
