NASPO is proud to present our new podcast, NASPO Pulse Podcast!

Every other week, tune in right here to Procurement Pulse to hear the latest podcast. Each episode is hosted by NASPO’s own Media Production Project Manager, Kevin Minor who will be interviewing NASPO leadership and staff, state central procurement officers, and subject matter experts.

Since we are kicking-off Pulse Podcast TWO episodes have been released, along with our series trailer.

Episode 1:

In the first ever NASPO Pulse Podcast episode, we speak to NASPO Chief Executive Officer Lindle Hatton and Chief Administrative Officer Jennifer Salts about the value of an association during a crisis like the global COVID-19 pandemic. We also take a look at the common trends in purchasing across the country, and how public procurement plays a part in the pandemic response.

Episode 2:

Jaime Schorr, Chief Procurement Officer for the state of Maine, discusses her experience in procurement, how the supply chain is reacting to the worldwide pandemic, and how her staff is adapting to working from home.
