Procurement affects and is affected by the public sector organization as a whole, and the community it serves, whether at the local, state, or national level. Therefore, participation in the collaborative development and adoption of Public Procurement Values and Guiding Principles by all stakeholders is desired. As a way to show support for this collaborative initiative, professional organizations may join as a Supporting Organization. There is no time or financial commitment to becoming a Supporting organization. It simply means that the organization supports NIGP’s collaborative efforts to develop public procurement values, principles, and standards of practice. If the organization can share the word about the project with its members, that would be very valuable.

For more information, or to be added as a Supporting Organization, please contact Tina M. Borger, CPPO, Research Director for NIGP at tborger@nigp.org

Sustainable Procurement Open For Public Comment

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE

In case you missed it, the latest Practice Sustainable Public Procurement is now open for public comment.   This is perhaps the most exciting Practice to date, as we seek to standardize this practice in public procurement around the globe.

We hope that you will take a moment to comment and participate with other stakeholders from around the world.  The Practice will remain open for comment through February 27, 2012.
