Intellectual Property In Department of Defense Contracting

False Claims Act: When Does Embellishing Become Fraud?

The Department of Defense (DOD) is taking a more aggressive stance regarding intellectual property rights (IPR) in its contracts as well as in its many research and development (R&D) activities.

In addition to the usual four types of IPR, Federal Government acquisition and R&D activities deal extensively with technical data rights.

When bidding for and performing DOD contracts, DOD contractors will be better equipped to protect their rights if they are aware of and understand the various categories of technical data and software rights and what rights the U.S. Government is entitled to.

In this webinar, Whitcomb Selinsky, PC's subject matter expert, Anne Lanteigne, will cover the technical data/software rights categories in DOD contracts. She will also discuss the different circumstances that determine which category a piece of technical data/software would fall under.

What insights are provided?

How DOD contractors can identify the rights category that is applicable to their technical data and computer software and what that means regarding the Government's and the contractor's respective rights to that technical data/computer software.

Webinar takeaways:

1. A general understanding of the way the DOD acquires rights in technical data and computer software.

2. How the DOD contractor can plan effectively for and protect its rights in technical data and computer software, regardless if the data/computer software pre-existed or is generated during the performance of its DOD contract.
