We’re excited to invite you to this month’s NMPPA Master Class—another opportunity to sharpen your skills and connect with fellow procurement professionals!


Master Class Title:  
Procurement Due Diligence: Verify Price, Verify Scope, Verify Authority


 

What You’ll Learn:
Learn how to perform effective procurement due diligence by verifying that the price is reasonable, the scope matches the actual need, and the person or entity approving the purchase has the proper authority. This session will provide practical techniques to identify potential issues before they become costly procurement problems.


Date: Wednesday, September 30, 2026
 
Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM (MT)



Presenter: Travis Dutton-Leyda 



Why Attend?
Every purchase tells a story—and the details matter. This session will help you strengthen your procurement process by knowing what to verify before moving forward. Gain practical strategies to catch red flags, protect public resources, and make more confident procurement decisions.

By the end of this webinar, you will be able to:

  • Verify whether a proposed price is reasonable and supported by adequate documentation.
  • Confirm that the scope of work accurately reflects the goods or services being procured.
  • Determine whether the appropriate individual has the authority to approve or enter into the purchase.
  • Identify potential red flags and due diligence gaps before they become procurement issues.
  • Apply a consistent due diligence approach to strengthen procurement decisions and protect public resources.


This session is designed to give you practical tools, real-world insights, and strategies you can immediately apply in your procurement role.
