Held each March in the Washington, D.C., area and open exclusively to SAME Sustaining Member Companies, the SAME DOD and Federal Agency Program Briefings are an opportunity to get a preview of the coming fiscal-year construction programs of the uniformed services and select federal agencies. One of the most popular items on SAME’s annual calendar, the day-long event includes an informational panel featuring the Engineering Service Chief of each uniformed service as well as in-depth forums that provide ample opportunity for public-private sector dialogue on improving the effectiveness of government programs.
