Stimulus Award News and Tips to Follow the Money for Drinking Water & Wastewater Projects – January 29, 2010

Tools to Follow the Money Tip of the Week – Attend Reverse Tradeshows and Exhibit Tradeshows of your Area Chapters of the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing. A Reverse Tradeshow by NIGP is the most awesome experience I have ever had visiting a Tradeshow. Each Governmental Agency Exhibiting will assist you on how to become their Vendor. Check out this NIGP Directory for Chapters in your Service Area: NIGP Chapter Websites
