The event provides exciting and relevant topics delivered by government and industry experts – and boasts insightful panels, workshops and networking events. Of course, you won’t want to miss the opportunity to meet key government and industry contracting personnel through our one-on-one matchmaking sessions – the hallmark of Gold Coast. On the exhibit floor, you will have an opportunity to visit over 200 government agencies and industry organizations, including the ten Navy Systems Commands.

“While we were in an ever evolving time and an unprecedented pandemic, the VSS team remained flexible and adapted. The Logistician that was hired to manage our storage unit was very organized and detailed. She addressed any requests very quickly, responded to immediate requirements, deliveries, impromptu site visits, etc. She remained available in accordance to the contract but also ensured we were able to reach her immediately for emergencies. I would strongly recommend VSS for any federal contract with similar requirements.”

"I have been a COR on many contracts in my 14 years with the VA. And I honestly have to say that this Vendor/Contract has been the best experience I have had. The two staff they hired locally to manage the Warehouse in rural WI have been outstanding contract staff to work with. Things are completed timely and without error. They are always professional and have always strived to improve the inventory management of our stock of PPE and Equipment."

"On the afternoon of Friday, April 13th, it became apparent that Purell hand sanitary refills required to support the Kennedy Space Center Family Day were not on hand. This is a specialized product that is not normally stocked nor readily available on shelves. However, VSS was able to locate and willing to drive to Jacksonville, Florida, to deliver the product in the late evening. VSS’s same day outstanding support and teamwork allowed URS to fulfill its obligation to NASA without impact to Family Day.”
