Government Procurement Compliance Forum (GPC)

Collectively, our regional governments procure a wealth of goods and services annually. By making our processes more streamlined, standardized, equitable, and transparent, we are not only creating an environment in which businesses of all sizes can flourish, but will be better stewards of taxpayer dollars.
