If your company provides mobility solutions, you might want to check out the latest edition of the
Chief Visionary Blog. It ties in directly to comments from a government official who recommended other agencies consider leveraging small developers and specific acquisition methods (micropurchases and simplified acquisitions) that could create a veritable '
perfect storm of opportunity' for small contractors. Let me know what you think.
Today at 2:00PM ET via webinar, the
SAP Task Force will dive into what the
USDA is spending via simplified acquisitions, where they are spending those dollars and what they are buying.
The
Simplified Acquisition Spotlight, a continuation of our
Simplified Acquisitions: A Missed Opportunity for Small Government Contractors program, offers a

more tactical view of business activities at a specific agency. We'll be online the second and fourth Monday each month with a different agency.
Last Friday's meeting of the
Small Business Intelligence Community and Cyber Working Group (SBINT) was another very good opportunity for members to get information about direct and teaming opportunities in the IC. Members can
click here for a wrap-up of the meeting and info about upcoming agency speakers and opportunities to be discussed.
