A Note From Our President & Founder Jim Garrettson
The list of this year’s Greater Washington Government Contractor Award finalists came out this week and the category of companies with more than $300 million in annual revenue features some of the sector’s most notable names and leaders.
The Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce and Professional Services Council hand the GovCon awards each year to executives and companies the organizations deem as “demonstrative of leadership, innovation and commitment to the excellence of the individuals and businesses in the region’s government contracting sector.”
