About CAPPO
The California Association of Public Procurement Officials (CAPPO) connects public procurement professionals across California to advance ethical, fair, and effective purchasing. Through education, professional development, and collaboration, CAPPO supports procurement teams across state and local government, with its annual conference serving as a forum for shared best practices.

How We Support Successful IT Procurements
1. We Focus on Process, not just Execution
Public procurement success depends on how IT contracts perform after award. We support delivery that holds up through implementation, oversight, and change.
2. We operate within procurement realities
Our delivery approach reflects public-sector rules, timelines, and accountability requirements, working within established procurement structures rather than around them.
3. We engage as delivery partners, not sellers
At CAPPO, we focus on listening and exchanging practical experience on what helps IT contracts perform as intended in real public-sector environments.

From Our Leadership
Experienced leaders with deep government and technology expertise
“I believe strong procurement is defined as much by judgement and clarity as by rules.”
Today's most consequential procurements are those that involve technology, where complexity, risk, and long-term impact coincide. When procurement decisions account for service execution and accountability upfront, they create stability rather than downstream correction. That perspective informs how we, at Consultadd Public Services, engage with public agencies to support technology-driven projects that ultimately serve the public interest and reinforce trust.
