GUEST SPEAKER
Shanna Webbers, Chief Procurement Officer, IRS
Shanna Webbers is a senior acquisition professional leading a staff of over 350 contracting specialists and support personnel located across the United States. Ms. Webbers will discuss the additional acquisition resources she received, the restructuring of her workforce, the new Pilot IRS program, and how it allows for innovative acquisition at the agency.
DESCRIPTION
The Smart Contracting Working Group within PSC’s Acquisition and Business Policy Council (ABPC) was formed to look for opportunities to improve the federal procurement system that would benefit both government and industry. Commonsense policies and consistently applied procedures for how and when the government acquires services can greatly enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of the federal acquisition system. In many areas, improvements to government business and buying policy—whether through statute, regulations, or agency guidance—will lead to positive outcomes that far exceed the magnitude of the changes themselves.
