(8/31/22) - In today's Federal Newscast: The Office of the National Cyber Director announces 17 new appointments this week. The Defense Department makes a major update to its Mentor-Protégé program. And CACI wins a long-awaited contract worth billions of dollars.
For the past 30 years, Congress has continued to renew the Defense Department's Mentor-Protégé Program — but only as a pilot. The program, which pairs up established defense companies with small businesses for mutually beneficial gains, has been continually saved from the chopping block by lawmakers since 1991. Now, after an in-depth look from outside business experts, the Defense Business Board is recommending Congress make the program permanent once DoD makes a few tweaks.

While Amtower is the mentor, they describe a relationship where the value flows in both directions.Their bottom-line advice is that everyone needs a mentor and everyone eventually should look to be a mentor. No one succeeds alone.
