Description

Government Contract Law: The Deskbook for Procurement Professionals 4th Edition John T Jones JR ISBN 9781634258227

The fourth edition of Government Contract Law is a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to all aspects of federal government contracting, incorporating numerous significant changes in procurement since the Third Edition.

Based on the Contract Attorney’s course at The Judge Advocate General’s Law Center and School, this essential deskbook helps practitioners navigate the entire federal contracting process—from pre-bidding to award, and through protest and litigation—while minimizing risk to clients or companies.

Since the previous edition, government contract law has evolved considerably. The executive branch has implemented new policy initiatives, including revised labor regulations, while Congress has introduced changes addressing contractor business systems, human trafficking, and longstanding issues such as the perceived misuse of commercial items. Despite these developments, the fundamental framework for acquiring goods and services remains consistent.

This fourth edition of the ABA’s adaptation of the JAG Legal Center and School’s Contract Law Deskbook includes updated references, new chapters not found in the JAG School version, and revised content that is particularly valuable for contractor attorneys and the private bar. Expanded in scope, this edition serves both military attorneys and practitioners outside the military, making it an indispensable resource for anyone involved in government contracting.
