Technology and communications approaches change rapidly, and government contracting tools can become outdated, no longer meeting the purpose they were originally designed to serve. Innovative networking advances such as unified communications and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) are approaching the threshold of mainstream adoption by commercial companies with 50% of companies projected to implement them by year's end. How are agencies ensuring their networks aren't lagging behind in adopting the communications advances government needs to serve remote offices, employees, and the citizen?

Presented by Federal News Radio, this complimentary one-hour video training webinar will explore how agencies are outfitting their agencies for the decade ahead, in terms of their technology suite as well as their approaches to acquisition.
