The Coalition for Government Procurement holds an annual member meeting with officials from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) National Acquisition Center in Chicago, which manages healthcare supply and services contracts through the VA Federal Supply Schedules (FSS) program and the National Contract Service (NCS).
The objective of the open dialogue is to update industry on the latest initiatives at the VA NAC and for industry to learn about how they can better support the delivery of world class veterans’ healthcare at a best value to the American taxpayer.
On October 24, the Coalition held its annual member meeting with officials from the NAC at the Fairview Park Marriott in Falls Church, Virginia. This year’s event featured leadership from the VA Federal Supply Schedules (FSS) Program and the National Contract Service (NCS). In addition, for the first time, we were joined by the Commodity & Services Acquisition Center (CSAS) and the Denver Logistics Center (DLC). The support for this event from the VA and our members was exceptional, with approximately 150 participants in attendance.
We sincerely thank VA leadership for its support of the industry dialogue about these critical healthcare contracting programs at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
