Free Professional Development: For Public Procurement Professionals, By Public Procurement Professio

Looking to learn from your public procurement peers? CoProcure curates free monthly events for public procurement professionals to learn from each other and share best practices. Join us at an upcoming event or plan a customized educational session for your team or group!

Join us on Thursday 4/21 for “All aboard: Challenges and opportunities for collaboration in transit procurement”

At this free educational event, we’ll learn about challenges and opportunities for public procurement leaders from transit agencies across the county. During this event, you’ll:

• Learn from leaders in transit procurement about how they’re tackling some of the industry’s most pressing challenges.
• Identify opportunities for collaborating with peers in the industry.
• Access new connections and resources to help you tackle new challenges in your work.

Even prior to the COVID pandemic, transit agencies were facing unprecedented challenges and exciting new opportunities. One clear trend has been incorporating innovative new technologies that support public and regional transit, ease pollution and congestion, and connect existing systems. As local governments put American Rescue Act Plan (ARPA) funds to work, interest from government buyers in purchasing new technology like EV infrastructure and services is on the rise. On CoProcure, searches have increased over 90% quarter over quarter since January 2021, with California, New York, and Maine leading the way in purchasing.
