As part of the efforts to recognize acquisition professionals who contribute to outstanding improvements in acquisition throughout the federal government, the Chief Acquisition Officers Council is seeking nominations for the 2023 Acquisition, Program Management, Small Business and Procurement Equity, and Sustainable Acquisition Excellence Awards. Nominations are being solicited for federal employees engaged in team or individual activities that led to excellent results in any of the following acquisition areas in fiscal year 2022. The deadline for nominations is July 31, 2023.

The FAI 2023-2025 Strategic Plan outlines how FAI will achieve its mission—to prepare the acquisition workforce (AWF) at every stage of their career—while continuing to uphold its vision of being the premier institution of AWF excellence.
