Purpose of Industry Day
The purpose of the Industry Day is to affirm GSA’s recognition of the talent that exists in the small business community and its commitment to opening a dialog between that community, GSA, and the potential federal vendors that will be selected for these projects. A vast majority of these above projects have not yet been procured. The Industry Day provides advanced notice of the need for these services and possibility for either prime contract or subcontracting opportunities pursuant to these federal courthouse projects.
During the afternoon of the Industry Day, prospective large and small prime and subcontracting vendors will be given an opportunity to network with each other and GSA to showcase their talents and abilities in support of the U.S. Court House capital program.
Questions about this Industry Day should be directed to GSA’s Region 4 Office of Small Business Utilization at r4smallbiz@gsa.gov.
