Description

Through the development of the Procurement Excellence Boot Camp, the El Paso Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and the City of El Paso intend to develop local and regional entrepreneurs into contractors that understand commercial, local, state and federal contracting and to use that to scale and grow their businesses through these avenues.
