This workshop is a valuable new NCURA offering that invites participants to experience a cradle-to-grave, hands-on review of actual export-related provisions and clauses in practical settings: Have you ever looked at a solicitation and wondered what to do about clauses referencing foreign nationals or topic areas that might be export controlled? Should you review solicitations, RFPs, and proposals for export control issues, and what should you look for? What constitutes an export control issue? Is there anything you can do to mitigate the circumstances? Once the award arrives, what types of clauses trigger export control issues and how do you handle it? What are the considerations if the language can't be removed? What do you do next? This workshop will be organized to include group reviews of various solicitations, proposals, and awards, and a discussion of the implications of accepting restrictive language and how it impacts the ability to perform fundamental research at your campus. Strategies will be provided on how to deal with troublesome clauses often found in Department of Defense (DoD) NASA, and other awards. Steps to take will be outlined if troublesome clauses cannot be removed and export controlled work will be performed.
Knowledge of and experience with FAR, DFAR, and export compliance regulations including ITAR and EAR.
