Costpoint and the Year of Small Business at Deltek Insight 2021

In just a few weeks, Deltek Insight is coming to you virtually! See how Deltek is empowering small businesses to meet and exceed their business objectives through Costpoint. Register today and join us virtually September 14-15, 2021! 

As a small business, it’s difficult if not impossible to optimize your organization without first having a solid foundation to build upon. Deltek has created a platform to not only equip you but also build upon the foundation you worked so hard to build.  We do this with purpose-built security and project capabilities to help you navigate the rough waters that are the government contracting space. This year’s Costpoint product track has over 80 individual sessions that are aimed at aligning your team with consistent data throughout the project life cycle and providing the tools you need to win, perform, and profitably deliver on government contracts. Listed below are our top recommendations for sessions focused on the small business space with insight into how your organization can take more control of the story you tell.
