San Francisco Acquisition Interagency Council (SF-AIC)

Hello - Yesterday, I had an opportunity to brief the SF-FEB at its monthly meeting.  In a nutshell, I gave an update on the 10/22 small business outreach event sponsored by the US Army Corps of Engineers.  I also addressed the upcoming training on 11/18 sponsored by the Golden Gate Chapter of the National Contract Management Association, which will be held at the Oakland Federal Building.  

Lastly, I discussed the upcoming Acquisition Council quarterly meeting.  This will be held on December 3 from 9:30 - 11:30 at the Dellums (Oakland) Federal Building, 1301 Clay Street, Conference Room G, 5th Floor.  Please RSVP me at les.yamagata@gsa.gov by December 1.  Be sure to bring a photo ID to gain entry into the building.   

The agenda is as follows.  We will have a presentation by 18F's Executive Director, Hillary Hartley on its mission and digital/agile services.  

1. Roll Call
2. Updates on 10/22 USACE Small Business Outreach Event and 11/18 NCMA National Education Seminar, including feedback/observations
3. Update on Acquisition Excellence Award category for the FEYA (Federal Employee of the Year Awards)
4. Future outreach efforts in the area and throughout the Western US
5. Future training opportunities
6. Interact Updates and postings
7. Overview of 18F and digital services (Guest Presenter - Hillary Hartley, Executive Director, 18F)
8. Open Forum - What's happening in the "contracting world" within your organization?  Future trends?

I would like to see a great turn out; however, if you are unable to make it in person, we would still like you to patch into the meeting.  A bridgeline has been secured for remote employees.  The number is 1-866-617-4021; the password is 9761720.  

Thanks!
