On Cloud Nine: State Sales Taxation of Cloud Computing

April 18th, 2013
1:00 pm ET ( 12:00 pm CT, 11:00 am MT, 10:00 am PT )

State sales tax statutes, most of which pre-date the computer age, were not drafted and enacted to contemplate cloud computing. Very few states have statutes or regulations that directly address the sales taxation of digital goods, such as downloaded software, videos, books, or music, let alone access to software, data storage, or other services performed in the ‘cloud.’ Consequently, guidance on how states tax cloud computing is both difficult to find and research intensive, with most guidance coming from state tax department rulings and advisories.

This live audio conference is intended to short-circuit that intensive research process and provide up-to-date information on how the various states approach the sales taxation of cloud computing. It will equip attendees with an understanding of how states view cloud computing services within the context of sales taxation, how the characterization of a service providers contracts drives the analysis, and trends in sales taxation among the states.

Key Subcontracting Issues Including Flow-Down and Paid-if-Paid Provisions

April 16th, 2013
1:00 pm ET ( 12:00 pm CT, 11:00 am MT, 10:00 am PT )

The saying goes that two heads are better than one, and this is especially the case when pursuing government contract opportunities. It is a prime contract that has a contractor performing without any partners. Even large defense contractors with an extensive library of forms, however, can fall victim to certain traps that can lurk in the subcontract. Failure to comply with legal requirements, provide true and correct certifications, or negotiate adequate protection of one’s interests can not only impact company bottom lines, but also subject one to liability under the civil False Claims Act, potential civil and criminal liability under federal fraud statutes, and potential administrative sanctions, such as suspension or debarment. This live audio conference will cover some of the more important issues in a subcontract and provide valuable checklists and references for small business concerns, protecting intellectual property rights, and preserving ones status as a commercial item provider.
