On April 4, say goodbye to DUNS and hello to UEI

Memi Whitehead, the deputy assistant commissioner of GSA’s Integrated Award Environment, spoke about the shift with Federal News Network Executive Editor Jason Miller on Ask the CIO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
