ACQ TECH CONFERENCE

PSC’s first acquisition and technology conference will be a unique thought leadership forum, providing attendees with the opportunity to hear from senior government officials, engage on crucial issues and collaborate on delivering more effective mission results across government through better technology adoption and more effective acquisition and business management.

This one-day conference will bring together senior government and industry leaders in an extensive dialogue on new ideas, innovative approaches and best practices. During the course of the day you will: • Gain

insights into significant changes in contracting for services and for technology across the government;

• Be

the first to hear the findings and results of the PSC/Grant Thornton 2015 CIO Survey;

• Discuss

the changes in federal contract pricing policies; and
