Please join SMPS Maryland as we review the recent revisions to Maryland DGS and MDOT procurement, presented by DGS Facilities and Procurement experts.
The panel will also discuss the efforts lobbyists are undertaking to keep Maryland design and construction contracts with Maryland firms. This is a great opportunity to catch up on recent procurement changes as well as take a look as to how the future of the built environment is shaping up.

Donation Drive:
Since we know you’ve all been Maria Kondo-ing you’re closets, we’re going to help you out and take those unwanted (and lightly worn) business pieces off your hands. This month SMPS is supporting the efforts of two incredible organizations in Baltimore, Dress for Success and Sharp Dressed Man, both dedicated to empowering individuals through professional presentation. All you need to do is bring your donations to the program, where we will have donation boxes placed near the registration table. From there, SMPS will take all items for dry-cleaning and then drop them off to their respective charity. It’s donations made easy! Here is a list of the items we will be accepting: professional and lightly worn- suits, blouses, slacks, skirts, blazers, dress shoes, handbags/briefcases, belts, and ties.
Contact Heather Rustici, hrustici@jbc.bz, for donation drive questions.
