Procurement is a diverse profession. Every category presents procurement with unique opportunities and challenges, ensuring that no two days are ever the same. This variety is one of the features that procurement professionals love most about the field. But, when procurement works in government contracting, a whole new set of rules, expectations, and processes apply.  In this episode of the #LoveProcurement podcast, Kelly Barner is joined by Amanda Christian. Amanda is the Senior Vice President of Contracts and Subcontracts at CACI. Amanda heads up both the sell and buy side for a government contractor, and she has years of experience navigating the requirements of "Gov Con," many of which just don't exist in the private sector. Amanda shares her insight into what it's like to lead procurement for a government contractor, including: The adjustments procurement has to make when working in government contracting versus the private sector How to meet the needs of a large enterprise or government entity while still prioritizing small businesses, and maintaining data and system security along the way What the intense audit process is really like for procurement when they work in government contracting Links: Amanda Christian on LinkedIn
