020: Elliott Branch - Former Director of Contracts Naval Sea Systems Command and SES Member

Elliott Branch is truly a once in a lifetime individual who is absolutely brilliant.

He was the Director of Contracts for Naval Sea Systems command, which is the largest or next to largest single buying activity in federal government. And our team over here at Govon Giants just happen to catch him a cool 6 weeks out of retirement at the time of this interview so we got lucky to be the first ones to have him on our show.

During the interview we discuss 4 critical "to­-do's" for small businesses. 1.Special emphasis programs vs socio economic programs. 2.How the government buys inputs 3. Ross Perot firm EDS 4. Democratization of work and the acronym Noggis ­ a term that I will quiz you about if you ever meet me in person and reference this episode.
