Have a question or a problem?  SECAF can help!  SECAF’s Contractor Advice Forums are unique value-added services provided at no-extra-cost to SECAF members.  If you have a question or an issue which you are struggling with - big or small - ask CAF!  We offer two types of advice forums:
 
  • SECAF Chat – Use SECAF Chat to connect with fellow SECAF members.  You may ask a question or share an idea about anything related to your business or just take a look to see what SECAF members are talking about.  Perhaps a fellow SECAF member can help you!  We have created seven different Forums in SECAF Chat:   1) strategic planning; 2) business partnering; 3) market penetration; 4) mergers and acquisitions; 5) financing; 6) information technology and 7) human resources. SECAF Chat is open to all SECAF members only – both Service Providers and Government Contractor members.  Service Providers are strictly prohibited from attempting to sell their services via SECAF Chat.
  • SECAF Confidential – Have a question or a problem that you do not want to share with the membership?  Use CAF Confidential to ask a question or request advice.  The CAF team can provide expert advice to SECAF members on a strictly confidential basis on a variety of topics including but not limited to: strategic planning; business partnering/market penetration; mergers and acquisitions; financing; information technology and human resources
