THE FEDERAL CONTRACTORS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE - THE VOICE OF FEDERAL CONTRACTORS NATIONWIDE™
The Federal Contractors Chamber of Commerce (FCCoC) is a national business chamber dedicated exclusively to the businesses, professionals, institutions, and organizations that participate in, support, and contribute to the United States federal contracting and federal acquisition marketplace.
FCCoC brings together federal contractors, subcontractors, prospective contractors, industry professionals, government-acquisition stakeholders, legal and financial professionals, educational institutions, and organizations supporting the federal contracting community to advance a stronger, more informed, capable, compliant, and competitive federal contracting environment.
Our work is centered on a simple principle: Federal contracting is governed by rules. The ability to understand and apply those rules is fundamental to competing, performing, protecting contractual rights, and building sustainable federal contracting businesses. FCCoC exists to help the federal contracting community understand those rules, engage the marketplace, address common business conditions, and participate more effectively in the federal acquisition system.
OUR MISSION
The mission of the Federal Contractors Chamber of Commerce is to strengthen the federal contracting community by advancing its common economic and business interests through education, advocacy, industry representation, government-industry engagement, and access to the knowledge and resources necessary to compete, perform, and succeed in the federal marketplace.
FCCoC accomplishes this mission by bringing together industry, government, legal, academic, and professional stakeholders to:
- Advance understanding of the federal acquisition environment;
- Promote sound federal contracting practices;
- Educate the contracting community on federal acquisition laws, regulations, policies, procedures, and case law;
- Identify and address business conditions affecting federal contractors;
- Facilitate meaningful dialogue between industry and government;
- Provide forums for the exchange of knowledge, experience, information, and ideas;
- Promote lawful competition and participation in the federal marketplace;
- Develop professional and organizational capability within the federal contracting community;
- Conduct research and disseminate information concerning federal acquisition and contracting;
- Provide opportunities for contractors to engage with peers, experts, government stakeholders, and supporting professionals; and
- Advocate, consistent with applicable law, on matters affecting the common business interests of federal contractors.
OUR VISION
A FEDERAL CONTRACTING COMMUNITY THAT KNOWS THE RULES, UNDERSTANDS THE MARKETPLACE, AND HAS A VOICE IN THE SYSTEM.
FCCoC envisions a federal contracting community in which businesses are not merely introduced to federal contracting, but are equipped with the knowledge, professional judgment, and practical understanding necessary to operate within the federal acquisition environment.
We believe the long-term strength of the federal contracting marketplace depends upon contractors who understand not only how to pursue federal opportunities, but also the laws, regulations, procedures, contractual obligations, administrative processes, and legal authorities that govern the federal acquisition lifecycle.
