The start of a new year is always a busy time in the public sector. As agencies reset their budgets and shuffle their priorities, now is the time to take a step back and ensure your products are getting into the hands of government buyers. Right now, we’re seeing a massive push toward Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) solutions. Policy mandates are encouraging federal agencies to cut costs by moving away from "custom everything" and toward proven, commercial software and cloud offerings. If you’re selling commercial tech, the window of opportunity is wide open.

Chit Chat with Chittick: Episode 6 - The Thanksgiving Edition

Let’s settle a major national debate. What’s the best part of Thanksgiving? Some swear it’s the turkey. Some say pie. Some say “family time,” which… okay, sure. But we all know the real MVP is the side dishes. The stuffing. The mac and cheese. The mashed potatoes. That sweet potato casserole that’s basically dessert disguised as a vegetable. The magic is in the variety—you build the plate you want, however questionable your combination choices may be. (Yes, gravy on everything is acceptable. No, gravy on salad is not.) Here at Four Inc., the SLED team lives by this philosophy. Your technology options should look like a Thanksgiving buffet—plentiful, flexible, and capable of making everyone a little too confident about going back for seconds. As an industry-leading Public Sector Technology Provider, we offer a spread of solutions wide enough to impress even the pickiest relatives.
