This is session 3 of 4 in the Government Contracts Workforce Management Challenges Series.

Workforce flexibility impacts an organization’s facility occupancy, management, and cost recovery. Given these changes in the workplace, contractors are seeing increased scrutiny on facilities management and utilization. Often, the scrutiny results in questioned costs in their final rate submissions under FAR 31.205-17- Idle facilities and idle capacity and FAR Part 31.201-3, reasonableness. Documentation is key to demonstrating mitigation strategies undertaken by the contractor and optimizing cost allowability. In this session, participants will become familiar with the requirements and common mitigation approaches to facility compliance with the contract cost principles.
