DA01--Small Business Event | How To Do Business with SAIC and Other Large Businesses Virtual Training Webinar | Cisco Webex Jan 22 | Amendment 3

The Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization is hosting an informational virtual training webinar scheduled for Thursday, January 22, 2026, from 1:30 P.M. to 2:30 P.M. EST via Cisco Webex. This pre-solicitation notice is not a formal solicitation but rather an informational and planning event designed to educate small businesses on how to conduct business with Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) and other large businesses. The webinar will provide participants with an outline of business opportunities and insights into what qualities large businesses seek in small business partners, with particular focus on Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSB). Interested parties must register by January 21, 2026, through the VetBiz website at https://www.vetbiz.va.gov/events. The notice explicitly states that unsolicited proposals and offers will not be considered in response to this announcement, as it serves purely for information and planning purposes.

This opportunity carries no set-aside designation and involves multiple NAICS codes spanning computer systems design, programming, engineering services, facilities management, and consulting, with primary codes including 541330, 541519, 541618, and 621111. No specific award value, budget range, or contract quantities are disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, as the event is educational rather than a procurement action. Participants will have the opportunity to connect directly with SAIC's Small Business Director and Health Team, who will discuss partnership opportunities and operational insights. The announcement will remain archived for 90 days following the January 21, 2026, response deadline. For questions or support, interested parties should contact the Direct Access Program at DirectAccess@va.gov or call 202-461-4694 during Monday through Friday, 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M.
