DHS Industry Day

The Department of Homeland Security’s Office of the Chief Procurement Officer is hosting a one-day Industry Day event on December 3, 2008, at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C. The purpose of this event is to provide a platform for DHS to share advanced acquisition plans and better communicate its requirements to industry participants. This will help increase competition and foster stronger relationships with contractors across various sectors. The event is open to federal contractors, including large and small businesses, and encourages participation from groups such as Small Disadvantaged Businesses, 8(a), HUBZone, Service Disabled Veteran Businesses, Veteran Owned Businesses, and Woman Owned Businesses. Attendance is limited to one representative per company, and space is limited, so early registration is recommended via the official conference website. Presentations from the event will be webcast, with a link available on the day of the event. For further inquiries, points of contact include DHS Contract Administration Services Division personnel and designated officers such as E. Darlene Bullock. This Industry Day serves as a key opportunity for interested firms to gain insight into upcoming DHS contract opportunities and establish valuable industry contacts.
