Increasing interest in opportunities in public works projects, coupled with a massive increase in Federal construction projects "ready to go" thanks to the economic stimulus package, will be a major focus of the 2009 AGC Annual Convention in San Diego.
The annual session of the Federal and Heavy Construction Division will be held March 6 and focus on acquainting all those interested in pursuing contracting opportunities with the Federal government, particularly in light of the current state of the private construction market and the implementation of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Economic Stimulus Package). This special session will be Moderated by Tom Kelleher of Smith, Currie & Hancock and feature a panel of speakers covering the construction markets, bonding industry and legal experts to help navigate the complexities of the Federal market.
AGC is also proud to host a special day-long Federal Forum, which will take place March 5 from 9:00am - 3:15pm and conclude with a Federal Forum Reception that will take place from 5:00pm-6:00pm.
Other meetings of interest to contractors interested in the Federal market include a joint session of the Corps of Engineers and Marine Contractors Committees, the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Committee, and a special session on the $10 Billion Military Construction Program underway in Guam. All three session will be held throughout the day on March 4.
