On April 26, 2010, President Obama issued a Presidential Memorandum establishing an Interagency Task Force to develop proposals and recommendations for increasing the use of small businesses in Federal contracting, including businesses owned by women, minorities, socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, and service-disabled veterans of our Armed Forces.
The Small Business Administration (SBA), the Department of Commerce (DOC), and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), who serve as co-chairs of the Task Force, invite interested parties to offer their views on the challenges small businesses face in pursuing federal contracts and best practices for overcoming these challenges.
The Small Business Federal Contracting Forum will be conducted on June 28, 2010 at 1PM EST to allow interested parties the opportunity to voice comments on these issues. This public meeting will be held in the auditorium of the Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington DC 20230.
