287: The $5M GovCon Rule That Could Kill Your Business (FOCI Is Coming!)

In this episode of Govcon Giants, I'm joined by Andrew McAllister from Holland & Knight—one of the largest law firms in the country—to unpack some serious developments that government contractors need to pay attention to. We're talking foreign ownership, national security scrutiny, skyrocketing tariffs, and the growing role of AI in defense and supply chain regulation.

Andrew breaks down the rising concern over FOCI (Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence), and why even unclassified contracts above $5 million could trigger government investigations into your board makeup and capital structure. We also touch on how AI is changing legal investigations, export control, and battlefield readiness—and what you can do to stay compliant and competitive as regulations tighten. If you're a government contractor looking to grow or simply survive in today's climate, this is an episode you can't afford to skip.
