March 22, 2024 Membership Meeting and Workshop

Chapter Membership Meeting and Workshop.  This meeting is in-person and virtual. 

AM Presentation: Join us for the NIGP Business Council presenting Evolving Practitioner-Supplier Conversation then We No Bid.

 The Supplier-Practitioner Conversation helps procurement professionals and suppliers obtain a better understanding of how to strengthen this critical relationship. It explores how suppliers can help entities with their procurement strategies. It also provides information on what suppliers must do to provide value to an entity or agency even when changes occur in the marketplace. When suppliers and procurement practitioners work together, they can form mutually beneficial relationships that add value to their entities.

That Was Then, this is Now Why Suppliers Are Still Choosing to ‘No Bid'.  Entities sometimes issue solicitations with complex, dense, and excessive requirements, which can result in complicated and costly contract administration. This can lead suppliers to determine that the cost of proposing for a given project is too high, resulting in a “no-bid” outcome. Just as procurement professionals analyze the cost of conducting a sourcing process, suppliers must also determine the costs and benefits of responding to a competitive solicitation opportunity. If it is not cost effective for them to do so, they will not bid.

PM Presentation: Rachel Brackett, Florida Office of Attorney General's Antitrust and Complex Enforcement Division

The Office of the Attorney General's Antitrust and Complex Enforcement Division seeks to provide training to Florida professionals who may in their daily work encounter evidence of antitrust violations. We have created a presentation that can be tailored to attorneys, procurement professionals, and investigators or other staff who may handle complaints or inquiries regarding companies doing business in Florida. Our goal is to train as many professionals as possible on what to look out for regarding antirust issues in our state and to teach them what and where to report such information
