DHS Industry Day

The Department of Homeland Security’s Office of the Chief Procurement Officer is organizing an Industry Day event to enhance communication between DHS and industry stakeholders. Scheduled for December 3, 2008, at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C., this full-day event aims to provide advance acquisition plan information and promote greater competition by sharing detailed insights into DHS requirements. The event is targeted toward federal contractors, including those from various small business programs such as Small Disadvantaged Businesses, 8(a), HUBZone, Service Disabled Veteran Businesses, Veteran Owned Businesses, and Woman Owned Businesses, offering them a platform to explore contracting and subcontracting opportunities within DHS. Attendance is limited to one representative per company, with space constraints requiring prior registration through the conference website. For those unable to attend in person, presentations will be available via webcast, with the link provided on the event date. The event is managed by the Department of Homeland Security’s Contract Administration Services Division, and inquiries can be directed to officials such as the Contracting Officer, E. Darlene Bullock, through provided contact details. This initiative reflects DHS’s commitment to improving transparency and engagement with industry partners to foster a competitive and diverse procurement environment.
