SaskPower and the Ministry of SaskBuilds and Procurement will present on the ins and outs of doing business with Government of Saskatchewan ministries and Crown corporations on Tuesday, October 11.

The event will be at THE SPOT in the Southland Mall. It will start at 1 p.m. with a presentation from SaskPower and SaskBuilds to be followed by a Q&A session.

It will include an overview of how public entities engage with local vendors, bidding processes, how and what is being assessed when you respond to competitions, trade agreements, and more. Connecting Crown and Government procurement organizations with local supplier communities helps build local supply chains to the benefit of vendors, government entities, and Saskatchewan residents.

Rhea Brown is the Director of Procurement and Contracts Management at SaskPower. John Lax is the Director of Industry and Stakeholder Relations with Priority Saskatchewan at the Ministry of SaskBuilds and Procurement. The two will share highlights of procurement in the province and forecast information from their organizations.

This is an opportunity for Regina Chamber of Commerce members to have a candid conversation with representatives at the heart of procurement processes for provincial public sector procurement.
