The longest government shutdown in U.S. history didn’t just stop work—it changed the way contracts move. For most people, it’s old news. But for those in government contracting, the impact is still real: delayed projects, lost revenue, and strained teams. This episode looks at what that means now and how you can respond.
We use a simple idea—Schrödinger’s Box—to explain the uncertainty that shutdowns create. Until you “open the box,” every contract could be in different states: active, delayed, or canceled. Without clear communication, you’re guessing, and wrong guesses cost time and money. Join Kevin Jans and Paul Schauer as they share practical steps to stay ahead, reconnect with priorities, and avoid big mistakes. If you work in GovCon, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
