WASHINGTON, Nov. 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) brought together private-sector construction professionals including architects, engineers and general contractors at its first Design and Construction Industry Day Forum. Under the theme of "Building Opportunities Together," 400 forum attendees networked with GSA leadership on project opportunities for the coming year.
