COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF FEBRUARY 19,1997 PSA#1785OPEN LETTER TO INDUSTRY February 13, 1997 OPEN LETTER TO INDUSTRY
Throughout the years, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of
Acquisition & Materiel Management National Acquisition Center (NAC) has
formed a valuable relationship with the pharmaceutical, medical
supplies and equipment industries. We want to strengthen that business
relationship. Government procurement practices are changing rapidly.
The Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA) and other policy
decisions have and will continue to affect the way we do business. We
believe that planned exchanges of views with our business partners will
foster effective communications between ustomers, contractors, and NAC.
The NAC/Industry Partnership invites you to participate in a one day
conference entitled, "Progressive Partnerships: Our Path to the
Future," on March 13, 1997. This conference, which will be held at the
Rosemont Convention Center (Rooms 21 and 22), is located at 5555 N.
River Road, Rosemont, IL. The conventioncenter is conveniently located
minutes away from O'Hare International Airport (Chicago). Registration
will begin at 9:00AM. The conference will start at 10:00AM and adjourns
at 4:00PM. There is no charge for this conference. It will focus on
what we're doing, what is different, and what is on the horizon. If you
and/or other representatives of your company are interested in
attending, please fax the company name and names of those attending to
(708) 786-5147 by March 7, 1997. Also, advance questions are solicited
