Help Shape Better Procurement Outcomes for Ontario’s Broader Public Sector

At OECM, we believe the strongest procurement solutions are built through collaboration, innovation and expertise.

That’s why we’ve created the OECM Subject Matter Expert (SME) Roster Program, a strategic initiative that connects experienced professionals with OECM sourcing teams to help deliver stronger procurement solutions for Ontario’s broader public sector.

By joining the SME Roster Program, you may have the opportunity to share your expertise, support meaningful sourcing initiatives and contribute to procurement solutions that create lasting value.

Why OECM Created the SME Roster Program

Procurement is constantly evolving.
