10th ANNUAL PASA PREMIER CONFEX

LIVE in Melbourne at Flemington Racecourse Conference Centre

The theme for this year’s ConfeX: Why it’s all different now…..

Why it’s all different now … is set to be the largest Procurement conference in the country this year, including ‘The NIGELS’. The procurement in practice excellence awards. The tradition of the PASA Annual Conference is always being ahead of the curve on thought-leadership, innovation, relevance, value and practicality.

” This is one of the best events I have been to. Great opportunity to network, very important.”

- A previous PASA conference delegate

THE NIGELS

The Annual PASA Procurement in Practice Excellence Awards

The founder of PASA, Nigel Wardropper, always took a personal hand in the PASA awards process, the presentations and the shortlisting. He cared that procurement as a subject constantly moved forward – that it was innovative, practical and, most of all, achieved real results.

These principles have been enshrined into the PASA Awards process for the future as a memorial to Nigel who passed away in October 2020.
