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.

SUMMARY:June 2026 PMI-MC Monthly Chapter Event

Understand the structure and intent of the FAC‑P/PM certification framework: Participants will be able to describe the purpose\, levels\, and acquisition‑focused competencies of the Federal Acquisition Certification in Program/Project Management and how it differs from the PMP® framework. \n2. Compare PMP® and FAC‑P/PM approaches to project governance and lifecycle alignment: Participants will be able to identify key similarities and differences between PMBOK‑based project management and the federal acquisition lifecycle\, including terminology\, decision gates\, and stakeholder expectations. \n3. Apply strategies to bridge communication gaps between PMP® practitioners and federal acquisition stakeholders: Participants will be able to use practical techniques to translate PMBOK concepts into acquisition‑relevant language\, improving collaboration with federal customers\, partners\, and peers who operate within FAC‑P/PM or other internal certification models. \n\n\nPresenter Biography: \n\n\n\n\nJeff Beverage is a passionate educator and magnetic presenter with a long history of facilitating growth and inspiring greatness for individuals\, teams\, and organizations.  His energetic and engaging classes have captivated audiences around the globe for over 20 years.  As an instructor and facilitator\, Jeff works with CEOs\, executives\, managers\, and team members at all levels – across dozens of federal government agencies and Fortune 500 companies – to develop leaders and drive performance.
