Event Description:
Understanding the defense industry and its perspective is key to quality market research and acquisition strategy development, as well as beneficial to successful Government contract negotiation and performance management.
In this episode of "What Every Acquisition Professional Should Know," we continue to explore the critical task of assessing a company's financial well-being. We'll explore behaviors that could be predictors for financial disaster. Once we identify those behaviors, we will take a deep dive into options that Acquisition Professionals have.
This episode will build on the skills that we have already explored on this series. We invite you to view earlier sessions in the series.
