The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) is hosting a two-day Large Business Prime - Small Business Vendor Outreach Matchmaking Event (VOME). The virtual event will be held on Wednesday, December 6, 2023 and Thursday, December 7, 2023, with meetings occurring between 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. To support the Executive Order 13985, Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities through the Federal Government, and the core mission of the OSDBU of maximizing prime and subcontracting opportunities for small businesses, this VOME supports large to small business communications assisting with decreasing small business gaps in capabilities, encouraging new entrants, and strengthening the small business vendor base.
The virtual event is expected to raise awareness of subcontracting opportunities, potential partnerships, facilitate discussions that may lead to mentor-protégé relationships and joint ventures, and a space where small businesses can present their core capabilities. Each meeting will be a 15-minute meeting established by the matching of core competencies, needs, and lines of businesses as identified by the firms North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) Code(s). Prime Contractors will choose to meet with the small businesses that align with their needs. Consequently, there may be many small businesses that register but may not receive a meeting.
What This Event Is:
A virtual one-on-one 15 minute meeting(s) between large and small businesses.
An opportunity to discuss potential subcontracting, partnering, and teaming between large and small businesses.
An opportunity for new entrants to establish a relationship with large businesses currently doing business with DHS or other federal agencies and/or actively seeking opportunities.
What This Event Is NOT:
A virtual Vendor Outreach Session. There are no meetings with DHS Small Business Specialists.
A procurement-specific VOME or an Industry Day for any DHS procurement.
A webinar event and slides will not be provided.
All businesses are required to register and provide the required information that includes a capability statement and a valid email address in their profile compatible with various virtual meeting tools (e.g., Zoom, Microsoft Teams, WebEx, etc.). Once your firm receives confirmation of a meeting from the scheduling site, you will receive a follow-up email with the virtual meeting invitation. If you do not see a meeting invitation, check your spam or junk mail folders. Please refer to the attached registration guide. Please be advised that if connectivity issues occur using the virtual tools, the session may be conducted telephonically or rescheduled.
Large businesses that want to participate should contact Kyle Groome at Kyle.Groome@hq.dhs.gov and Jenista Tobias at Jenista.Tobias@hq.dhs.gov.
