Message from our President

Kirby Zachmeyer | Published on 2/24/2026

Dear RMGPA Members,

It is my pleasure to serve as your President for 2026.

Spring is just around the corner, and with the fantastic weather, it’s a great time to get out and enjoy the season! It’s also the perfect time to invest in your professional growth. We have an exciting lineup of events designed to help you enhance your career in public procurement:
  • Lunch & Learns: At least three sessions coming up soon.
  • Conferences: Two in-person and two virtual conferences.
  • NIGP Classes: Two in-person classes to deepen your knowledge.
  • NIGP Forum: Registration is now open for the Forum in Columbus, OH, at the end of August—don’t miss this opportunity!
If you’re new to the field, consider joining our Emerging Professionals group, which meets monthly to discuss different topics and build connections. Additionally, our Board meetings are held monthly, and you are encouraged to attend virtually.

Registration for all events can be found on the Event Calendar on the RMGPA website.

A big thank you to everyone who responded to our call for volunteers at the Winter Conference! Your willingness to step up is what makes our organization thrive. If you volunteered and haven’t been contacted yet, please know we still plan to reach out.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or any board member if you need assistance or have questions.

Let’s make this a year of growth and connection!

Warm regards,
Rosalyn Potter, NIGP-CPP, CPPB
President, RMGPA
