Recently, Supply Chimp had the privilege of attending two significant events in Washington, D.C.—the AUSA (Association of the United States Army) Conference and the NIB/NAEPB (National Industries for the Blind and National Association for the Employment of People Who Are Blind) Annual Conference. Our leadership team—including our President, Joe McKenna; VP of Operations, Jeff Burwell; Director of Vendor Partnerships, Michael Weinstein; and VP of Business Development, Patrick Voller—attended to connect with partners and explore emerging trends in the government contracting space.

AUSA Conference: Advancing Defense and Readiness

The AUSA Conference centered around innovations in defense and readiness, showcasing cutting-edge technologies that enhance military capabilities. For Supply Chimp, this event highlighted the importance of building strong partnerships to ensure reliable delivery of supplies overseas and to diversify our product categories to meet the evolving needs of our government clients.

Building Strong Partnerships for Global Impact

In conversations with industry leaders, it became clear that collaborating with established and trusted partners is crucial to providing seamless delivery and logistics support for military and federal clients around the world. By expanding these alliances, Supply Chimp aims to maintain a strong supply chain and diversify product offerings to include new, innovative solutions in critical areas like technology and field supplies.

NIB Conference: Strengthening Inclusion and Innovation

The NIB Conference, dedicated to empowering and expanding employment opportunities for individuals who are blind, low vision, or visually impaired, was inspiring and insightful. Supply Chimp’s commitment to supporting Ability One products and initiatives aligned perfectly with the conference’s focus on fostering inclusivity and driving innovation in accessible solutions.

Focus on Ability One Product Expansion and Compliance

At the NIB event, our team participated in discussions focused on expanding our AbilityOne product portfolio and ensuring rigorous compliance with program standards. This commitment to compliance and growth in the AbilityOne category reflects our dedication to supporting opportunities for individuals who are blind, low vision, or visually impaired while ensuring alignment with federal government procurement requirements.

The Power of Strong Partnerships

Both the AUSA and NIB/NAEPB conferences underscored the significance of having strong, trusted partners in the evolving government contracting landscape. At Supply Chimp, we believe that true collaboration leads to success. By connecting with our partners directly, we reaffirm our commitment to delivering quality and innovation, making sure our offerings meet the unique needs of government clients.
