New Contract Administration Special Topics Credential
I’m pleased to let members of DoD life cycle logistics and product support manager community know that our DAU Contracting colleagues have deployed their latest learning asset, the new CCON 013 Contract Administration Special Topics Credential!
This newest defense acquisition credential is designed to improve the tradecraft associated with administering Government contracts. In this credential, students will learn about topics relating to administering federal government contracts in ways that ensure that the contractor performs the requirements and delivers a usable end item or service to the Government in a timely and efficient manner. The component courses contained therein address many issues and problems that surface during the contract administration phase. The credential emphasizes that both government and contractor personnel need to understand their rights and obligations under the contract and how to approach difficult situations and resolve problems to the mutual benefit of all parties. This credential is designed to explain the legal and regulatory underpinnings of federal government contract administration by addressing various aspects of effective contract administration from initial award through contract closeout.
