Small Business Event – BEP-IT Vendor Outreach Session
For each appointment, vendors will have 15 minutes to present an overview of their company capabilities via screen sharing in Microsoft Teams. That 15 minutes should allow for the presentation, and Q&A with the government representatives. Vendors will be given a 2-minute notice as you approach the 15-minute time limit, then a final notification that the appointment time is over. We recommend vendors join the meeting at least 15 minutes before their scheduled appointment time.
