The Office of Emergency Management (OEMC) is partnering with the Department of Procurement Services (DPS), Chicago Police Department (CPD), and Chicago Fire Department (CFD) to host a networking event for potential vendors - "Doing Business with the City of Chicago." The event will be held at Public Safety Headquarters, located at 3510 S. Michigan Ave., Chicago, on Tuesday, September 23, 2014 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm.

The event will educate vendors about the services OEMC, CPD and CFD provide, and to learn what products and services the departments will need to procure in the next 12 months.  As a result, vendors will be better informed about what goods and services they may be qualified to provide and pursue contract opportunities as either a direct or indirect contractor or subcontractor.

Over 5,000 invitations have been sent out to different firms in various industries related to technology, computer hardware/software and public safety.

To register for the event, please call 312.744.6394.
