Federal IT Acquisition Summit

There are few topics that attract more attention in Federal Government acquisition than how to improve the effectiveness of information technology (IT) acquisition. Given the volume of annual investment, the need to streamline and better manage acquisition activities, and requirements to obtain information on the continuous changes in contracting methods, governing Federal Acquisition Regulations, and other regulatory guidance, to stay current, Federal acquisition professionals must refresh their knowledge on an ongoing basis. To support this demand, the Federal IT Acquisition Summit has been designed by and for those in public service to understand their procurement options, learn how they can expand their professional training, and clarify which acquisition resources are available to support their agencies specific business and mission objectives.
