Taking a Break Due to Increased Workload!
(or How Wonderfully Hectic Was Your Week?)
Okay,
in all seriousness I guess I DO have an entry for this week, it just
wasn't planned. But the workload has increased and in ways beyond our
membership programs.
For starters, we've been pinged by a few
agencies requesting assistance in identifying some industry partners.
You'll see one of them (from the FBI)
on the front page of our site and in this newsletter. Look for others
will shortly. What I love about this most is having the opportunity to
give our members a leg up and giving them the information first. It's
not that we don't value all of the contractors out there, but c'mon! I
mean, membership does have its privileges, right?
Then for all of you folks with interpretation and translation experience, you may be DLITE'd to know this Thursday and next Wednesday, we will be hosting two teaming events for the upcoming INSCOM DLITE requirement with our friends from Mission Essential Personnel
(MEP). Don't know who they are? Well, we've known MEP (formerly Aegis
Mission Essential Personnel) since they were knee-high to a June Bug,
which means they are a founding member of The ASBC and we knew the
company when the employee count was around fifteen. Want to know where
they are today?
MISSION ESSENTIAL
PERSONNEL (MEP) IS THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE'S LEADING PROVIDER OF
TRANSLATORS, INTERPRETERS AND CULTURAL ADVISORS IN AFGHANISTAN, WITH
MORE THAN 5,000 PERSONNEL IN THEATER AND HUNDREDS MORE IN AFRICA, ASIA,
EUROPE AND THE MIDDLE EAST.
Pretty cool, huh?!? We think they know what they are doing and might make a good teaming partner. But, that's for you to decide.
Members will also see references to multiple teams engaged to pursue the DIA-IES opportunity. We're in pure matchmaker mode for this one and have already helped two sets of teams get formed. Good luck folks!
There is plenty more of this in store as all signs seem to indicate fiscal year end may be a busy one!
Once again, this is how we roll. Peace!
