Small Business Programs: Challenges and Choices

**This event will be online only**

Ronald Saville, Department of the Air Force (DAF) Office of Small Business explains the opportunities DAF provides small businesses to participate in DAF total purchases, contracts, and subcontracts.

The main objective of the Department of the Air Force Office of Small Business Programs is to utilize small businesses to ensure timely, reliable, and cost-effective delivery of products and services in support of the Airmen and Guardian warfighters. The President, Congress, and DoD leadership have recognized the contributions of small businesses to the industrial base, and America’s ability to successfully overcome threats ranging from non-state actors to near-peer competitors.
