Doing Business with the Department of Homeland Security
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has a huge mandate: keep America safe and to foster
the freedoms that we cherish. In striving to meet this goal, the Department has a wide
variety of opportunities for businesses to introduce new products and technologies –or new
applications for existing ones.
Successfully working with DHS is a win/win for both the Department and your business. But
where do you begin? How do you find out the status of grants, small business opportunities,
R&D and contracts? What steps should you take in advance to best position your company
to work with DHS?
Doing Business with the Department of Homeland Securitywill provide the “ins & outs” of the
procurement process, current manufacturing opportunities, and how to successfully approach
DHS with your product and/or technology.
