B2G Market Research: From Random Information to Actionable Intelligence [#B2GEDU]

B2G Market Research: From Random Information to Actionable Intelligence

No matter the line of business, industry experts often state, "Information is King.” For the individual professionals and companies experiencing success in Government Contracting, the impact of this statement is realized daily since every aspect of business in the federal sector benefits from the creation and exchange of information. The more accurate, relevant and timely the information you have is, the better your ability to make decisions to support achievement of your goals and objectives.

This workshop edition of The ASBC’s of Government Contracting will provide industry novices and veterans alike with a solid look at many available resources and techniques for finding information, deriving context from it and leveraging that information to identify new business opportunities, insight on recent awards made to competitors and purchasing trends at agencies of interest.
