On Base reported yesterday on an upcoming webinar hosted by the DOD Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation on DOD’s Other Transactions (OT) authorities.

The webinar has been rescheduled to July 31 at 3 p.m. Eastern time, according to an updated announcement from OLDCC. The event was originally planned for July 30.

About the Webinar

OTs allow DOD to tap into nontraditional contracting options, such as partnerships at the local and regional level.

“This webinar is tailored for members of defense manufacturing communities, as well as other DOD partners, including those in industry, academia, other federal agencies, and state and local governments,” OLDCC said. “Attendees will gain insights into how prototype and production OTs are managed and executed, with a focus on the best practices for consortium-based OT agreements.”

Mary Kathryn Robinson, director for contract policy in Defense Pricing and Contracting, will discuss key aspects of DOD’s Other Transactions Guide.

How and When to Join

You can join the webinar through the OLDCC site when it starts Wednesday, July 31 at 3 p.m. Eastern time.
