Welcome to the home page of the Chief Acquisition Officers Council (CAOC). The Chief Acquisition Officers Council (CAOC) is established pursuant to Section 16 of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act, as amended, 41 USC 403, et seq.

The CAOC consists of a diverse group of acquisition professionals in the Executive Branch established to provide a senior level forum for monitoring and improving the federal acquisition system. The CAOC promotes effective business practices that ensure the timely delivery of best value products and services to the agencies, achieve public policy objectives, and further integrity, fairness, competition, and openness in the federal acquisition system. The CAOC works closely with the Administrator, Office of Federal Procurement Policy, and the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council to promote these business practices in the acquisition system.

The CAOC is focused on promoting the President's Management Agenda in all aspects of the acquisition system. The CAOC also promotes the President's specific acquisition-related initiatives and policies.
