Join Tammy Rimes, MPA, Executive Director of National Cooperative Procurement Partners, and a panel of experts on Thursday, January 18 from 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. You've heard of cooperative purchasing or group buying, but do you know how to build a strategy?  Discover ways that cooperative contracts can assist in your purchasing role, delineate when using a cooperative may or may not be the best idea; and decipher the right questions to ask through the NCPP "Roadmap to a Group Buying Strategy." 

The trend toward using these contracts is growing - both on the procurement side as well as the vendors who now have these contract offerings.  Starting the conversation with trends in Canadian public procurement, real case studies and success stories will be shared, along with a panel of experts to share insights and answer your questions.
