BCL Manufacturing hosted the JARI PTAC's Spring 2017 Government Business Development Forum on Tuesday, May 9th. Congressman Rothfus, along with 40 others, attended this networking event and learned more about BCL Manufacturing as well as Great Dane Powder Coating, a BCL supplier. Attendees were able to network with local company CEOs, business owners and business development specialists to share their capabilities. BCL also gave a tour of their state-of-the-art facility.
The JARI PTAC and the Defense Business Council have been facilitating the Government Business Development Forums since 2010. These forums are a great way for small businesses to meet and network with area government contractors. The forums are for all government contracting.
