IAC Membership and Strategies to improve Membership Development
The IAC decided to begin a
membership push to increase the IAC membership to approximately five representatives
from each of the three major GWACs run by NITAAC: ECS III, IW2, and CIO-SP2i.
(The IAC Charter is attached.)
Accordingly, those IAC
members who have missed the last three meetings from the current IAC will be
asked if they wish to nominate other personnel from their companies for
inclusion in the new expanded IAC since they are no longer participating. New members are solicited to represent the
three GWACs.
The IAC also decided to make
a push to reinvigorate the three IAC Subcommittees for Marketing, Programs, and
Government Affairs. (The charters for
these three subcommittees are attached.)
As a result of these
initiatives, the following people representing NITAAC’s contract vehicles have
expressed an interest in the joining the IAC or its subcommittees (some have
expressed specific interest as follows- some are still TBD):
