Public Spend Forum and NIGP provide an overview of the Public Procurement Workforce Competency Model and a case study by Jack Pellegrino, Director of Procurement (Chief Procurement Officer) – County of San Diego, on how he is using the Public Procurement Workforce Competency Model in his organization. Also, we will discuss the results of how public procurement leaders across the U.S. self-assessed their organizations against each of the competencies.
