Celebrating 70 years!

This year marks the 70^th anniversary of the National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO). In celebration of this historic event, NASPO has developed a timeline to document some key moments significant to NASPO’s distinguished history.

From George Cronin’s vision of a professional organization of state purchasing officials focused on effectively addressing the issues of public procurement to Dianne Lancaster’s recent selection as NASPO’s Chief Learning Officer, the 70^th anniversary timeline highlights major milestones in the rich history of NASPO.

The 70th anniversary timeline includes historic photos pulled from the NASPO archives, as well as a written history that documents some major achievements in the life of NASPO and its membership from 1947 to the present. View the timeline here.
