PPANCT

The Public Purchasing Association of North Central Texas (PPANCT) has served public purchasing professionals in North Central Texas since 1986. We are proud to be a chapter of the National Procurement Institute (NPI), which is the public purchasing affiliate of the Institute for Supply Management (ISM). PPANCT was organized to establish cooperative relationships among its members for the purpose of developing efficient and effective purchasing methods and practices in the field of public procurement, and to advance the purchasing profession in the North Central Texas region. We are dedicated to providing avenues for growth in purchasing and materials management, thereby enhancing the skills needed and the ongoing education desired by public purchasing professionals, today and in the future. PPANCT's monthly meetings and Spring and Fall Pro-D Days feature notable experts who share their perspectives on key issues and current trends facing the purchasing industry. Our meetings and events also provide members with valuable networking opportunities to share ideas with like-minded professionals and potentially advance their careers.
