This week on BGOV’s Capital Impact show hosted by Allen Scott:

• Bloomberg Government’s new Market Analyses use contracting trends, budget and legislative action and announced upcoming work to help triangulate opportunities in individual markets of federal contracting. Every quarter, BGOV will release new Analyses on different topics in a given market that customers can use to better prepare their companies to successfully compete for business. Quantitative analysts Evan Croen and Tiffany Young join Capital Impact to break down “Defense Vehicle Maintenance Contract Opportunities”.
• President Obama’s Affordable Care act is not only bringing insurance to those who may not be fortunate enough to have coverage but it’s also providing a lot of money to professional services companies who’ve won millions in contracts for health care consulting. One of the people responsible for Maryland being one of only 14 states to operate these health care exchanges is Maryland State Senator Joanne C. Benson. She discusses education, gun legislation and the Affordable Care Act on this weeks program.
