What We’ve Been Doing ….

E-mail Print PDF

Our fanatical loyal readers may have noticed a recent drop-off in blog article production. Nobody actually accused us of slacking-off, but we know you were thinking it. Well, yes. We have been lazing around the house, catching-up on reality TV shows. But we’ve also been busy writing a new article.

We try to submit two articles a year. We’ve had past success with West’s Government Contract Costs, Pricing, & Accounting Report (Karen Manos, Editor). (It may help that Nick Sanders is on the Advisory Board of that publication….) We’ve also had some success in getting articles published in the NCMA’s Contract Management magazine.

This time around, while we were aiming for another CM submission, our final product turned out about 50% too long and with too many endnotes (more than 50 of them). So we submitted it to Bob Antonio over at Where in Federal Contracting? and it was accepted.

Here’s a link to our article. While you’re over at Bob’s most excellent site, make sure to check out his blog (which includes articles from multiple sources) and the discussion forum. Truly, we think WIFCON is a treasure and we use its resources frequently.

We will resume our normal blog article production schedule next week – which (as you may know) sets as a target the publication of between 2,500 and 5,000 words per week on government contract cost accounting, administration, and program management topics.
