Litigation Partner John Terzaken was quoted in a Global Competition Review article titled, “New DOJ task force looks for procurement collusion.” The article discusses how the DOJ’s Antitrust Division is focusing resources on a new task force intended to identify behavior that affects purchases by the government. The DOJ is requesting public comment on its implementation of a “Procurement Collusion Strike Force” complaint form, which would allow members of the public to tip the DOJ off to potential antitrust crimes related to public procurement, grants and program funding. Commenting on the strike force initiative, John says it “represents good fundamentals for the DOJ” to protect public investment and make sure taxpayers “are getting the best bang for their buck.”
