By addressing the distinct needs of government organizations, we reinforced our position as a trusted government contracting partner.

Building Strategic Partnerships in Government IT

In addition to engaging with government entities, GO Technology Group networked with both prime and subcontracting partners. These collaborations are essential for delivering comprehensive IT solutions that align with government procurement requirements. By forming strategic alliances, we strengthen our ability to provide secure, scalable, and reliable managed IT services tailored to government agencies.

Gaining Strategic Insight into Government Procurement

At the Apex Accelerator Summit, GO Technology Group strengthened its understanding of how state and local agencies identify qualified IT vendors ahead of formal RFP releases. Sessions like the Capability Clinics, Procurement Panels, and Reverse Match-Making provided valuable insight into what agencies prioritize when evaluating potential partners.

Key procurement insights included:
