DA01--Small Business Event | AT&T Virtual One on One Session | Cisco Webex Apr 8 | Amendment 3

The Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization is hosting a virtual event on April 8, 2025, targeting small businesses with capabilities in telecommunications, management consulting, computer services, and communications. The event, conducted via Cisco Webex, will feature AT&T Federal Solutions Virtual One-on-One Meetings designed to establish relationships with small businesses, particularly those with Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) classifications. The primary focus appears to be on staff augmentation, colocation services, and cybersecurity across multiple North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes. Interested businesses must register through https://www.vetbiz.va.gov/events by April 7, 2025, with meeting slots allocated by confirmed appointment. This pre-solicitation notice is strictly informational and does not constitute a formal solicitation, with explicit instructions that unsolicited proposals will not be considered.

The event has no specific set-aside designation, though it shows a preference for veteran-owned businesses. While no specific award values or budget ranges are disclosed, the event suggests potential future contracting opportunities across various technical service categories. The virtual sessions will be limited in capacity, indicating a selective approach to identifying potential small business partners. Participants can expect to receive an outline of business opportunities during the one-on-one meetings, which will run from 9:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. EST. Businesses interested in participating can contact the Direct Access Program at DirectAccess@va.gov or 202-461-4694 for additional information about the event and potential future procurement opportunities.
