DSCR intends to conduct a meeting of all parties interested in discussions concerning the establishment of a Commodity Council, defining the expectations of the council, long term contracting, maintaining the cable industrial base, leveraging the connector industry, small business participation and growth, demand planning, shared data and metrics, and other issues affecting the end goals of improved support to the warfighter and a strong industrial base. The date for this conference is targeted sometime during one of the last two weeks of September or the first two weeks of October 2003 in Richmond, Virginia. The conference will last one full day.
