January 30 | 1:00pm CST - Purchasing Basics (1 Hour Duration)
Let’s talk about purchasing—the magical process that turns budgets into the stuff we actually need! Whether it’s keeping our city running or finding the best deal for a project, purchasing is where the magic happens. But, like any good magic trick, there are rules to follow to make sure it’s done right—no shortcuts, no favoritism, and definitely no disappearing budgets! Today, we’re going to break down the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of the purchasing process so you can be confident that every dollar we spend is making a difference. So, grab your metaphorical shopping carts, and let’s dive in!
