A Professional Organization Dedicated to the Support and Education of California's Procurement Officials
About us
CAPPO was formed in 1915 as a nonprofit organization dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of professional behavior and ethical conduct in public procurement. As the oldest public procurement association in the United States, CAPPO works to provide tools to buyers in the public sector that will help them develop their professional skills for their benefit and the benefit of their agencies. CAPPO members exchange ideas in an effort to resolve problems affecting California's public agencies by sharing information on technical advances, cost factors, new laws, and sources for products. This open collaboration helps to strengthen the skills of public procurement officials as they fulfill their responsibilities to the public they serve. CAPPO helps cities, counties, schools, colleges, universities, special districts, and the State to build and strengthen fully effective procurement departments. CAPPO's ongoing educational programs and high ethical standards have provided substantial benefits to these entities. Good government and good procurement are mutually beneficial. CAPPO is dedicated to both.

Public Procurement Change Agent - I Lead Successful Projects for Public Sector Leaders | Founder/Principal at Civic Initiatives | Certified Public Procurement Officer
PODCAST POSTED: https://lnkd.in/edRGEcYm Do you know the main reason that #NASPO and #NASCIO and said in their recent report that #GenAI has been a slow adoption in public sector? Because of lack of adoption of acceptable use policies for staff. Well - I've already done it, and you can have it for free. In the podcast excerpt from my "Elevation: Generative AI From a Staff First Mindset" I talk about both what needs to be in one of these comprehensive policies, and how ChatGPT and I collaboratively honed a template you can use by downloading it from Civic (Link in the comments.) I also go point by point on the complex prompting that I used to create and refine this document by treating Chat GPT as a teammate, not a tool. I'll give this speech again at the California Association of Public Procurement Officials, Inc. conference in early January! More on that soon! #PublicProcurement #PublicSector #Procurement Civic Initiatives
