CRI is attending SAME Federal Small Business Conference (SBC) in Charlotte. Let’s Connect.
If you have spent any time in the federal contracting space over the last few years, you already know how quickly the ground shifts. Between evolving acquisition priorities, tighter agency scrutiny, and the operational demands of scaling up when a major award hits, staying aligned with where federal procurement is headed takes deliberate effort.
That is why we are attending the SAME Federal Small Business Conference (SBC).
Taking place November 4-6 at the Charlotte Convention Center in Charlotte, NC, SBC remains one of the most practical and high-value gatherings for the GovCon and A/E/C communities. It brings together thousands of small businesses, prime contractors, and federal agency decision-makers across defense and infrastructure to talk through real procurement trends, upcoming opportunities, and the day-to-day realities of mission delivery.
Why We’re Attending
For CRI, events like SAME SBC are about staying grounded in the operational realities small contractors face every day.
When businesses win bigger awards, the friction rarely shows up in their technical delivery—it surfaces behind the scenes in billing reconciliations, reporting mismatches, and compliance hurdles. Being on the ground at SBC lets us track upcoming agency priorities firsthand and hear directly what growing contractors are navigating right now.
