Transformative Infrastructure: Navigating Project Uncertainty through Public Procurement

• Has your government received a federal grant to modernize infrastructure in your community?
• Are you concerned about the complexity, risks, or uncertainty surrounding these high-priority projects?
• As a procurement professional, are you trying to guide your colleagues on how best to solicit these grant-funded goods and services?

From revitalizing roads and bridges to expanding broadband access, infrastructure upgrades are essential to improving residents’ daily lives. Procurement teams play a critical role in making these infrastructure projects a reality, strengthening communities through innovative, resident-focused approaches. While the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) infused significant funding to modernize the nation’s infrastructure, uncertainty persists around resourcing and policy requirements at the federal, state, and local level. These projects are also inherently complex and risky, from unforeseen site conditions to cost-overruns driven by inflation.

Join the Procurement Excellence Network for a 60-minute session exploring how procurement can help governments navigate these uncertainties and deliver successful infrastructure outcomes.  During this session, we will share:

• Peer Case Studies: Hear examples of how governments are using procurement to manage uncertainty and move their infrastructure projects forward.
• FREE Technical Assistance: Learn about opportunities to apply for project planning, procurement, or delivery support for your government’s infrastructure initiatives tailored by experts at Partners for Public Good.

Don’t miss a chance to connect with peers, exchange strategies, and strengthen your procurement team’s approach to delivering on federally funded infrastructure projects!

Post-Event Session: Stay on for an optional 30-minute open dialogue on how existing procurement laws and regulations impact infrastructure project delivery, as well as success stories of policy changes enabling more innovative approaches.
