USACE - Industry Day 2024

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Transatlantic Middle East District (CETAM) will host an in-person and virtual Industry Day on 10 October 2024. Check-in on the day of the event will begin at 0730. Tentative agenda will include a program overview and other topics covered from 0900-1130. A question & answer (Q&A) session with Contracting, Construction, Engineering, and Programs and Project Management will occur in the afternoon from 1330-1600.

The location will be in Winchester, VA, at Shenandoah University’s Ferrari Room located in the Brandt Student Center at 703 University Drive, Winchester, VA 22601. Parking will be available immediately next to the Brandt Student Center in the open parking lot as well in the parking garage. There is also overflow parking available at the WAEC Parking Garage on Ralph Shockey Drive which is an approximate 0.3 mile walk from the Brandt Student Center. Campus public security will be made aware.

Parking permits will not be required the day of the event. Refreshments will be available for purchase from the University vendor in the Brandt Student Center. Lunch will also be available for purchase in the Brandt Student Center with a variety of options.

The purpose of Industry Day is for our architect-engineer and general contractor partners to have a glimpse of the current and upcoming program opportunities in the CENTCOM Area of Responsibility (AOR) to allow both USACE and our contractor community to be better prepared for the work ahead.

Other select topics may also be presented and there will be an opportunity to openly discuss any questions, comments, concerns, and best practices contractors have about working in the CENTCOM AOR during the afternoon Q&A session. CETAM will solicit questions from industry in advance of the event.
