DHS to Participate at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's Annual Legislative Conference

The Department of Homeland Security is participating in a small business forum held during the 48th Annual Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's Annual Legislative Conference on September 13, 2018, in Washington, DC. Key DHS procurement leaders, including Chief Procurement Officer Soraya Correa and the Director of the Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization, Kevin Boshears, will engage in a panel discussion aimed at educating attendees on how to identify and compete for business opportunities with DHS. The event will also highlight DHS initiatives such as Category Management, Strategic Sourcing, and programs supporting small businesses. The forum offers a valuable opportunity for industry participants to connect directly with DHS procurement officials and learn about upcoming contracting opportunities and business strategies. It will be hosted at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, and those interested may contact the DHS Communications and Industry Liaison team or visit the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s website for further details. This engagement reflects DHS’s commitment to fostering meaningful dialogue with industry, especially small businesses, to enhance participation in federal contracting.
