Yesterday, our sedulous, lion-hearted Congressman Jim Moran hosted his 8th Annual Federal Procurement Conference at the FDIC Seidman Center in Arlington. The conference provided clarity and mature insights into the Washington Area business climate, as well as how to engage a small business with the Department of Defense.

Many Government Agencies and local Prime Contractors welcomed small business owners in the auditorium, such as: IRS, DARPA, U.S. Airforce, NAVAIR, NAVFAC, Veterans Association, General Dynamics, CSC, Lockheed Martin, and others. The conversations were artful, yet direct and forthright regarding how to navigate the labyrinth of each organization. I found the adage "Know thyself" applicable: know who you truly are, have a valuable product-service, then go investigate who actually needs you to be successful.
Mr. James Regan, Director of Virginia Procurement Technical Assistance Program served as Master of Ceremonies.
