Why be part of a Regional Council?

NPC Regional Councils work in local areas to increase opportunities for small businesses seeking growth through sales to government markets.

NPC Regional Councils meet monthly to gain knowledge about opportunities, take part in educational sessions, meet potential teaming partners and receive local and national procurement policy and opportunity updates.

Through your NPC Regional Council you will finally have the connection you need to information, opportunities and policy advocacy locally and nationally.

All NPC Regional Council participants must be members of the National Procurement Council.
