“New Guidance on Doing Business With the DoD”

“New Guidance on Doing Business With the DoD”
Los Angeles Chapter meeting on January 16

When Dr Ashton Carter was Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, he issued a set of guidelines for improving the department’s ability to manage successful acquisition programs, Known as the Better Buying Power initiatives (BBPi), these guidelines have been recently updated to BBP 3.0.

Please join us in Los Angeles on Friday, January 16, 2015, 7:30am – 9:00am PDT (networking at 7:00am), when Dr. Stan Rosen, Professor of Acquisition Management at the Defense Acquisition University & Vice-Chairman of the National Space Society, will explain the Better Buying Power initiatives, and clarify what’s new in BBP 3.0, and why. All those selling to the Department of Defense need to understand this guidance, as it is impacting the way DoD does business in acquiring products and services. Now that Dr Carter has been nominated for Secretary of Defense, these initiatives should get even greater emphasis.

The meeting is free for A&D Forum members and $40 for non-members ($30 Early Bird until January 9). For more information and to register to attend the meeting in person or for free via the web, go to https://adflajan15.eventbrite.com.
