Event description

Limitations on Subcontracting (LoS) is one of the most confusing—and most enforced—rules in government contracting.

For small businesses and their teaming partners, getting it wrong can lead to serious consequences. And the challenge? You may be asked to prove compliance at any point—before, during, or after contract performance.

This training breaks down LoS in clear, practical terms so you can understand what’s required and how to stay compliant.

What You’ll Learn

  • What the limitations on subcontracting rule actually requires
  • How LoS applies to set-aside and sole-source contracts
  • A step-by-step process to determine and maintain compliance
  • Common pitfalls that can put your company at risk
  • Real-world examples to help you apply the rule with confidence

Why This Matters

LoS isn’t just a technical requirement—it’s an area of active enforcement. Missteps can result in penalties, lost contracts, and reputational damage.

What You’ll Walk Away With

A clear understanding of how to navigate LoS requirements and a practical framework you can use to confidently assess compliance on your contracts.

Who This Is For

  • Small businesses performing or pursuing set-aside contracts (8(a), WOSB, HUBZone, SDVOSB)
  • Prime contractors responsible for ensuring compliance on awarded contracts
  • Subcontractors and teaming partners who need to understand their role in compliance
  • Business development, contracts, and compliance professionals
