1. To understand the nuts and bolts of criminal antitrust violations in procurement.

2. To better identify red flags of potential procurement collusion and fraud.

3. To learn best practices for maximizing competition and safeguarding your agency's procurement system.

4. To apply this knowledge to mitigate new risks, detect potential suspicious activity, and protect against bad actors in your agency's supply chain.

5. To understand how to effectively partner with the Procurement Collusion Strike Force to bolster deterrence, detection, and prosecution of antitrust crimes and related schemes affecting your agency.

About the PCSF:


The Department of Justice's Procurement Collusion Strike Force (PCSF) leads a coordinated national response to combat antitrust crimes and related schemes in government procurement, grant, and program funding at all levels of government—federal, state, and local. The PCSF is comprised of the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice, multiple U.S. Attorneys' Offices around the country, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Inspectors General for multiple Federal agencies.


In the wake of devastation caused by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, federal agencies will be working with state and local government agencies to solicit competitive bids for relief and recovery contracts. The PCSF is committed to supporting the OIG community to deter, detect, investigate, and prosecute violations of criminal antitrust laws, such as bid rigging and collusion in the competitive bidding process.
