Teaming Agreement

Overview

Drafting teaming agreements for government RFPs is time-intensive and high-stakes. Attorneys must carefully balance prime-subcontractor responsibilities, ensure FAR compliance, protect proprietary information, and negotiate exclusivity terms—all while racing against proposal deadlines. Manual drafting often takes 3-4 hours per agreement, with significant risk of missing critical clauses.

Drafting comprehensive teaming agreements for government contracts typically requires 8+ hours of attorney time, deep FAR expertise, and careful attention to affiliation rules, small business compliance, and enforceable post-award commitments. Manual drafting risks inconsistencies between the agreement and proposal representations, potentially creating evaluation concerns or unenforceable terms that leave both parties exposed.

CaseMark automates the entire teaming agreement drafting process, analyzing your solicitation documents and party information to generate fully customized, FAR-compliant agreements in minutes. Our AI ensures proper affiliation analysis, meaningful subcontractor participation, comprehensive confidentiality protections, and alignment between teaming commitments and proposal representations.

Questions

What makes a teaming agreement FAR-compliant?

A FAR-compliant teaming agreement must avoid creating improper affiliation between parties (especially for small business set-asides), ensure the subcontractor performs substantive work rather than acting as a pass-through, include appropriate flow-down clauses from the prime contract, and address any organizational conflicts of interest. CaseMark automatically analyzes your team structure and incorporates all necessary compliance provisions based on the solicitation's set-aside designation and requirements.

How detailed should the subcontractor's scope of work be in a teaming agreement?

The scope should be specific enough to create enforceable expectations and align with proposal representations, but flexible enough to accommodate refinements based on final government requirements. CaseMark balances this by defining technical areas, deliverables, performance locations, and estimated contract value or percentage, while preserving room for good-faith negotiation of detailed task orders and specifications in the formal subcontract.

What happens if we can't agree on final subcontract terms after contract award?

Your teaming agreement should include structured dispute resolution (executive negotiations, mediation) and specify consequences if resolution fails, such as the prime's right to substitute subcontractors subject to government approval. However, if your proposal committed to using a specific subcontractor, the prime may be contractually bound to that commitment or need government approval for changes. CaseMark includes provisions that address these scenarios while protecting both parties' interests and maintaining proposal integrity.

How long should confidentiality obligations last in a teaming agreement?

Confidentiality obligations typically survive agreement termination for 3-5 years for commercial information, though trade secrets may warrant perpetual protection. The duration should reflect the competitive sensitivity of the information and how long it retains economic value. CaseMark tailors confidentiality periods based on the type of information being shared and industry standards for your specific government contracting sector.

Can CaseMark handle teaming agreements for small business set-asides?

Yes, CaseMark specifically addresses small business set-aside requirements including 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB programs. The system ensures your agreement structure doesn't create problematic affiliation, verifies the small business prime will perform the required percentage of work, and includes provisions that preserve size status while establishing genuine teaming collaboration. All provisions align with SBA regulations and FAR subcontracting limitations.
