Small Agency Procurement Committee

About the Small Agency Procurement Committee

The Small Agency Procurement Committee comprises Procurement Chiefs from about 90 small, independent federal agencies. The Committee members meet every other month during October through June, discussing a variety of issues of interest to the community and having various federal leaders as guest speakers. Like the "large" Chief Acquisition Officers Council, the Procurement Committee serves as:

an effective information forum to learn what is happening in the federal acquisition arena,
a networking opportunity so that agency Procurement Chiefs can meet each other and exchange ideas, and
an effective liaison between the agency Procurement Chiefs and OMB, ensuring that small, independent agencies have a forum for discussing OMB guidance and reporting requirements.

Committee Membership

The committee welcomes all members of the small agency acquisition workforce . A current list of small agency Senior Procurement Executives is available at https://cao.gov/small-agencies
