Tips for OTA Award Success: Preparing a Successful White Paper

Please join attorneys Chris Nagel and Jeremy Burkhart of Holland & Knight's Government Contracts Group and white paper consultant Chris Holley for key insight on how to prepare an effective white paper in order to maximize the chances of award. Our attorneys will explore the framework of other transaction agreements (OTAs), how they are funded, the award process and the features that make them unique and distinct from traditional Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)-based contracts.

Questions we will answer include:

• How are OTAs typically evaluated and awarded?
• How can a contractor make its white paper stand out?
• What should contractors know about the unique legal and business characteristics of OTA performance?
• How are OTA disputes handled differently than traditional government contracts?
