IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Due to ongoing concerns about the Coronavirus (COVID-19), and the designation of a pandemic by the World Health Organization, NASPO has decided to cancel the 2020 NASPO Exchange Conference scheduled for March 24-26 in Nashville, TN. Our members, suppliers, partners, and staff are our top priority and we strongly believe this is the right decision given the current circumstances. We appreciate your understanding, and we look forward to seeing you at future NASPO events.
The purpose of the NASPO Exchange is to build relationships among the supplier community and state governments, the largest consumers of goods and services in the country. This conference is a place where learning, networking and partnering come together to develop business relationships to support public procurements that are effective, efficient, transparent and fair.
Learn through dedicated and targeted education on current trends in state procurement.
Network throughout the conference in One-on-One appointments, roundtables and collaborative projects.
Partner with suppliers and state government representatives to support effective public procurement outcomes.
In an effort to maximize the Exchange One-on-One experience for both suppliers and state procurement officials, only manufacturers and suppliers are invited to attend the 2020 NASPO Exchange. NASPO ValuePoint, the exclusive cooperative purchasing arm of NASPO, and MMCAP Infuse, a Minnesota-led pharmaceutical and healthcare cooperative, are the sole cooperatives proud to participate in the 2020 Exchange.
ANY AND ALL SUPPLIERS ARE WELCOME TO PARTICIPATE!
NASPO believes mutual benefit is derived from collaboration between suppliers and members to improve public procurement practices through shared information. By bringing these parties together in a cooperative environment with the highest standards of ethics, NASPO can develop educational programs on procurement issues for its members and suppliers.
NASPO’s Board of Directors has enacted and defined by formal policy the following standards and expectations for supplier and member behavior at the NASPO Exchange. It states:
This year’s Exchange promises to be another great opportunity for learning, networking and partnering between the state procurement and supplier communities to support more effective procurement outcomes.
