Department of Homeland Security Industry Day 2010

The Department of Homeland Security is hosting its 4th Annual Industry Day on November 17, 2010, at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center in Washington, D.C. The event runs from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with sign-in beginning at 7:00 a.m. This one-day event is designed to provide industry participants with advanced acquisition planning information directly from DHS components. Each component will feature panel discussions moderated by the respective Heads of Contracting Activity, offering detailed insights into their specific acquisition needs and contract opportunities. The goal is to foster increased competition by sharing useful information about DHS contracting and subcontracting processes. The event is open to a broad range of federal contractors, including large and small businesses, as well as representatives from Small Disadvantaged Businesses, 8(a), HUBZone, Service Disabled Veteran Businesses, and Women-Owned Small Businesses. To attend in person, interested parties must register online, with a limit of two attendees per company. For those unable to attend, the event will be available via webcast, accessible without prior registration through a link posted on the event website on the day of the event. The primary point of contact for questions is Bob Jeffers, who can be reached via phone or email. This Industry Day is organized under solicitation number DHSHQ_Industry_Day_2010_41 by the Department of Homeland Security’s Contract Administration Services Division.
