In Part 1 of this two-part series, Cherry Bekaert’s Government Contracting Industry advisors discussed what companies need to consider when being acquired or acquiring a company that has federal contracts that are a significant part of their business, including some of the administrative items critical to that process.

In Part 2 Brendan Halloran, a Senior Manager in Cherry Bekaert’s Government Contracting Industry practice, is joined by John Ure, a Tax Partner and member of the Firm’s GovCon practice, to discuss some of the additional administrative steps and tax considerations.
