PLEASE NOTE: FOR NON LOCAL ATTENDEES SELECTING TO STAY “OFF PROPERTY” FROM THE CONTRACTED HOST HOTEL, FAIRMONT AUSTIN:
All meeting space, food and beverage, audio visual equipment, etc., is supplied by the Austin Convention Center & Fairmont Austin at pre-negotiated and contracted prices reliant on hotel room usage. These negotiated numbers are used in the financial detail to determine the attendance registration fee. Not meeting this contracted hotel room usage would result in a sizeable financial penalty to the DMC Conference that would ultimately cause a rise in Conference Registration fees to all attendees. Therefore, should the hotel room block not meet the contracted hotel room usage, any non-local attendee choosing to stay at alternate hotels, or "Off-Property" will be subject to additional $350 registration fee onsite at badge pickup.
Government Attendees
All U.S. active duty military personnel and Government Civilian Employees are exempt from the following certification requirements, but must show proper identification at registration check-in.
Non-Government Attendees (Including Contractors)
To qualify to attend the conference, you must be a U.S. Citizen. All non-government attendees (including contractors) are required to have a government Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Logistics Information Service certified DD Form 2345. The certification number is provided by the U.S./Canada Joint Certification Office (JCO) located at the Logistics Information Services in Battle Creek, Michigan. This is the only authorized source of certification numbers.
Information regarding the DD Form 2345 Certification Process
To determine if your employer already has a certification on file that extends to all employees at your location, visit the website at http://www.dla.mil/HQ/InformationOperations/Offers/Products/LogisticsApplications/JCP.aspx or call the Joint Certification Office at 1-877-352-2255. PLEASE NOTE: Every location of a company MUST have its own certification.
Questions or Inquiries about your DD Form 2345 or the process to obtain a DD Form 2345, please contact the Joint Certification Office (JCO) at JCP-ADMIN@DLA.MIL or by phone at 1-877-352-2255.
Each attendee will be provided with an identification badge during on-site meeting check-in. This badge must be worn at all conference activities. No badge means no access to ANY event venues. To receive conference material and badges, attendees must show one of the following forms of identification at check-in:
Government/Military Attendees:
Government/Military ID or U.S. Government CAC Card
Non-Government Attendees:
Photo ID or U.S. Passport
For your protection, payments cannot be taken over the phone. All payment information must be submitted either during the initial registration process or through the link provided in the attendee registration confirmation.
Attendees are required to wear ID badges throughout the Conference General Session, Training, Technical Sessions, and Exhibit Hall. ID badges are not transferable, and DMC reserves the right to withdraw a badge used to gain admission to the Exhibition / Conference by any person other than the one for whom it was issued.
Please Note: Individuals attending DMC may be recorded or photographed during the course of the meeting, and by attending grant permission for their likenesses and the content of their comments, if any, to be broadcast, webcast, published, or otherwise reported or recorded.
