In the digital age, the way that information technology goods and services are procured can both enhance and restrict the policy and program choices that elected officials can deliver to Canadians. Procurement practices raise questions about value-for-money, expectations of public accountability, and the policy and delivery capacities of the state. Join us for this in-person discussion with Dr. Amanda Clarke as she shares the findings from research looking at the state of federal contracting, and recommendations on reforming IT procurement. This event will be of interest to a wide variety of public servants and other interested observers, including those who work in public policy, procurement, information technology, and corporate services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0For more information on IPAC please visit: Procurement community\/IPAC &#8211; GCpedia<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; module_id=&#8221;constant_contact&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.24&#8243; background_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.48)&#8221; background_image=&#8221;https:\/\/cipmm-icagm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/AdobeStock_238520189.jpeg&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat-x&#8221; background_blend=&#8221;overlay&#8221; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_blur_tablet=&#8221;40px&#8221; box_shadow_spread_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; global_module=&#8221;57934&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; background_size=&#8221;contain&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px|&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px|&#8221; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_blur_tablet=&#8221;40px&#8221; box_shadow_spread_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/cipmm-icagm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/signup.png&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_blur_tablet=&#8221;40px&#8221; box_shadow_spread_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<div data-form-id=\"57518\" id=\"ctct-form-wrapper-0\" class=\"ctct-form-wrapper\"><form class=\"ctct-form ctct-form-57518 has-recaptcha\" id=\"ctct-form-1855920195\" data-doajax=\"off\" style=\"\" action=\"\" method=\"post\"><p class=\"ctct-form-field ctct-form-field-text\"><span class=\"ctct-label-top\"><label for=\"first_name___67281f13970cdb5004f661a71a14ad20_0_3562233175\">First Name <\/label><\/span><input  type=\"text\" name=\"first_name___67281f13970cdb5004f661a71a14ad20\"  value=\"\" maxlength=\"255\" placeholder=\"First Name\" class=\"ctct-text ctct-label-top first_name___67281f13970cdb5004f661a71a14ad20\" id=\"first_name___67281f13970cdb5004f661a71a14ad20_0_3562233175\"  \/><\/p><p class=\"ctct-form-field ctct-form-field-email ctct-form-field-required\"><span class=\"ctct-label-top\"><label for=\"email___3ed9ac9fa4968bc64d5eeec80fdd2c2f_0_3940850431\">Email (required) <abbr title=\"required\">*<\/abbr><\/label><\/span><input required type=\"email\" name=\"email___3ed9ac9fa4968bc64d5eeec80fdd2c2f\"  value=\"\"  placeholder=\"Email (required)\" class=\"ctct-email ctct-label-top email___3ed9ac9fa4968bc64d5eeec80fdd2c2f\" id=\"email___3ed9ac9fa4968bc64d5eeec80fdd2c2f_0_3940850431\"  \/><\/p><p class=\"ctct-form-field ctct-form-field-submit\"><input  type=\"submit\" name=\"ctct-submitted\"  value=\"Subscribe\"   class=\"ctct-submit ctct-label-top ctct-submitted\" id=\"ctct-submitted_0_3958005866\"  \/><\/p><div class=\"ctct_usage\"style=\"border: 0 none; clip: rect( 0, 0, 0, 0 ); height: 1px; margin: -1px; overflow: hidden; padding: 0; position: absolute; width: 1px;\"><label for=\"ctct_usage_field\">Constant Contact Use.
