From the meeting
Central Management Services named an Agency Purchasing Officer, Assistant Deputy Director for Strategic Sourcing, and a vacant Deputy General Counsel for Strategic Sourcing (Procurement). That staffing points to continued statewide purchasing control and sourcing oversight, with legal support still being filled. Vendors should watch for category strategies, master contracts, and procurement policy changes flowing from this team.
