SUMMARY:Industry Cyber Webinar: Winning Government Contracts with a Zero Trust Mindset: Prioritizing Cybersecurity Readiness
DESCRIPTION:Federal acquisition priorities are trending toward proven cybersecurity readiness\, transforming how government contractors compete\, and win\, for today’s most complex\, high-value procurement programs. As federal agencies raise the bar for security over convenience\, contractors are expected to level-up their cybersecurity posture to even be considered for any mission-critical systems. \nIn this webinar\, you’ll learn how gaps in security and compliance limit eligibility for major initiatives such as Golden Dome for America. Programs of this scale demand proven cyber resilience\, readiness\, and trust to secure sensitive data.

SUMMARY:Federal Industry Webinar: The Federal Market Has Changed. Has Your Strategy?
DESCRIPTION:The federal market has fundamentally changed — and the January Executive Order “Prioritizing the Warfighter in Defense Contracting” is only part of the story. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OB3) has injected historic funding into defense priorities\, but as The Chertoff Group has argued\, OB3 is the accelerant\, not the cause. The deeper shift is structural: how the Department of War defines needs\, allocates risk\, awards contracts\, and holds contractors accountable has been permanently rewired. \nFor executives and growth teams operating in the defense industrial base\, the window to adapt is narrow. The FY2027 defense budget of $1.5 trillion represents an unprecedented opportunity — but only for firms that understand the new rules of the game. \nIn this webinar\, The Chertoff Group will break down what this transformation means for your pipeline\, your governance structure\, and your competitive positioning. \nWhat You’ll Learn: \n\nHow OB3 funding and the Executive Order on defense acquisition are reshaping contract priorities — and why the structural changes will outlast any single piece of legislation\nWhat the shift to the Warfighting Acquisition System means for capture strategy: why speed to delivery is now a performance threshold\, not a goal\nHow Portfolio Acquisition Executives have displaced program-level relationships as the real center of gravity — and what that means for your BD approach\nWhat a 30-day performance review cycle means for your board\, your finance team\, and your executive compensation structure\nHow to build a capital reinvestment posture that meets DOW scrutiny while protecting shareholder value\nSupply chain security obligations flowing down to sub-tier contractors\nProactive steps for audits\, governance playbooks\, and IP realignment — before a performance trigger forces your hand\n\nAre you ready to succeed in this environment? Join us to understand how to build that posture now.
