SIG

A Special Interest Group is an organized body of stakeholders focused on a specific topic, technology, industry sector, or policy area within the government contracting community. SIGs facilitate information sharing, best practice development, and collective advocacy among members with shared interests.

In government contracting, SIGs may form around contract vehicles, technology domains, socioeconomic categories, or acquisition policy issues. Participation in relevant SIGs provides networking opportunities, market intelligence, and visibility into emerging requirements or policy changes. Industry associations often host SIGs that connect contractors with government customers and peers.
