GTSC's Transportation Security Symposium

March 21, 2024 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM (EDT)

Description

The Government Technology & Services Coalition (GTSC) is thrilled to announce the 12th Annual Transportation Security Symposium, dedicated to dissecting the missions, programs, and overarching goals of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). At GTSC, we are committed to bridging connections between our members and the government, providing unparalleled access to crucial information, and fostering collaborative environments that drive understanding and progress. This year’s symposium promises an in-depth exploration of several key areas that are vital for both current and future operations within TSA. Attendees can look forward to engaging discussions on: The Administration’s Procurement Goals: Understanding the procurement objectives and strategies is essential for businesses looking to collaborate with the TSA. This discussion will shed light on how the administration plans to navigate procurement to meet its security and operational needs effectively. IT Transformation Initiatives: In an era where technology underpins every facet of operations, TSA’s IT transformation initiatives are critical. This segment will delve into the ways TSA is leveraging technology to enhance security measures, improve efficiency, and streamline operations. Small Business Strategy: Small businesses play a crucial role in supporting TSA’s mission. This conversation will focus on the agency’s strategy to engage and work with small businesses, outlining opportunities and how small entities can contribute to the TSA’s objectives.
