Martin and McDaniel share insights regarding DII’s initiatives to promote best practices in business compliance programs for government contractors.

Martin discusses DII’s Small Business Toolkit, a comprehensive collection of resources for small and medium businesses to facilitate compliance with complex contractor regulations.  McDaniel highlights DII’s annual Best Practices Forum which brings ethics and compliance leaders and experts from across government and industry to share best practices and lessons learned.

Finally, Martin and McDaniel outline future DII initiatives and efforts to support sound, ethical business practices across the contractor community.
