Combatting Antitrust Misconduct in Government Procurement: Regulatory and Enforcement Developments

Overview:

In its continued effort to deter anticompetitive conduct and other violations affecting government procurement, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) created the Procurement Collusion Strike Force in 2019. It is comprised of state and federal investigators and prosecutors mandated to investigate and prosecute all types of procurement collusions and other similar misconduct in government purchasing and programs.

The new strike force, which is one of the Antitrust Division’s enforcement priorities, is expected to intensify scrutiny of companies and individuals participating in government procurement. Therefore, concerned businesses should ensure that their compliance programs are robust and current.
