BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH EDI WITH DOD SEMINAR. The Business Opportunities through EDI with DOD Seminar will be presented by the Scranton Electronic Resource Commerce Center. Sponsored by the CECOM Acquisition Center, Fort Monmouth, New Jersey 07703-5008, February 26, 1997, Location Gibbs Hall, Ft. Monmouth, NJ. CECOM Acquisition Center will be expanding its implementation of Electronic Commerce/Electronic Data Interchange (EC/EDI). These electronic purchasing procedures will save CECOM and you time and money. EC/EDI will make our acquisition activity and you, our trading partners more competitive in our rapidly changing global environment. To enter the EC/EDI acquisition arena, we need to exchange business documents electronically. The EC/EDI technology will facilitate the exchange of these documents in a standard format. It will allow us to broaden our competitive base and allow you, our trading partners, the ability to access Government solicitations not only from CECOM but also federal buying activities throughout the United States. You will submit quotations, and receive purchase and delivery order awards at your desk. EC/EDI will enable businesses to better compete in a global market. The CECOM Acquisition Center at Ft. Monmouth will continue its transition to Electronic Commerce using procurements under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (Less than $100,000). To complete the process, more complex type procurements will follow. CECOM procurement personnel remain committed to you, our vendor community, and will continue to keep you informed of developments. Knowledgeable presenters from the University of Scranton's ECRC will be here at CECOM to present the seminar on "Business Opportunities with DOD through EDI". It is vitally important for you to be aware of these changes that are taking place in the acquisition community. You are cordially invited to attend the seminar scheduled for February 26, 1997, the cost is $20.00 per person and should be remitted to the Scranton ECRC. (The seminar will run from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm; Registration will take place between 8:00 am and 9:00 am). Questions related to this seminar should be directed to Scranton ECRC 1-800-575-3272 or the ECRC Home Page at (www.ecrc.uofs.edu).
