DHS Fiscal Year 2009 Industry Day

The Department of Homeland Security’s Office of the Chief Procurement Officer is organizing a one-day Industry Day event on December 3, 2008, at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C. This event aims to provide a platform for DHS to share advance acquisition planning information with federal contractors and industry representatives, fostering better communication of DHS requirements and encouraging increased competition. The event targets a broad range of participants, including large and small federal contractors as well as representatives from Small Disadvantaged Businesses, 8(a), HUBZone, Service Disabled Veteran, Veteran Owned, and Woman Owned Businesses. Presentations from the event will be made available via webcast for remote access. Attendance is limited to one representative per firm, and registration is required through the provided conference website. The contract administration is handled by the Department of Homeland Security’s Contract Administration Services Division, with Darlene Bullock serving as the Contracting Officer. Interested parties can contact Bob Jeffers for additional details or questions. The event serves as an important opportunity for industry stakeholders to gain insight into DHS’s procurement needs and position themselves for upcoming contracting and subcontracting opportunities.
