7th Annual Procurement and Contracting Symposium April 27, 2010

El Paso Community College’s Contract Opportunity Center presents “Reaching Out in 2010” the 7th Annual Procurement and Contracting Symposium. This important event for the southwest business community will take place Tuesday, April 27 from 7:30am to 3:30pm at the EPCC Administrative Services Center, 9050 Viscount Blvd, Building A. Admission fee is $75 and preregistration is highly recommended. Contact the EPCC Contract Opportunity Center at (915) 831-7749 or online at www.elpasococ.edu to register.
This event is essential to all West Texas and Southern New Mexico businesses. Federal government agencies have joined with agencies of the State of Texas and their contractors to “Reach Out” to this area. Businesses are given the opportunity to meet with and learn how to gain their contracts. Some of the business in attendance will be The Boeing Company and the United States Department of Agriculture. This is a great marketing and networking opportunity.
The mission of the Contract Opportunities Center is to promote business development by providing procurement technical assistance throughout the County of El Paso. The Center is committed to assisting and motivating businesses - with emphasis on small, minority, women-owned, veteran-owned, small disadvantaged and HUBZone certified - toward market expansion and job creation through active pursuit of government contracting opportunities to include federal, state, county, municipal, educational institutions including their prime contractors.
