The National Contract Management Association (NCMA) is a professional society of more than 21,750 government and industry contract management practitioners. The Lone Star Chapter is the local affiliate. The primary purpose of this chapter is to foster professional growth and to advance the knowledge of individuals engaged in the management of all types of instruments involving expenditure of public or private funds, whether by contract, subcontract, grant, assistance agreement, lease or other form.
We enable our members to develop professionally by offering: access to a diverse contract management community of practice, a sanctioned Code of Ethics, an organized Body of Knowledge and an accredited certification program. Through its international Chapter network, publications, programs and activities, NCMA provides the tools, resources, and leadership opportunities to enhance each member’s professional career and gain recognition for their voluntary accomplishments.
We enable organizations that employ members of our community of practice to advance their organizational goals by facilitating ready access to skilled human capital, learning resources, and best practices, standards, and metrics of the profession. We uphold the professional standing of our members to improve contract management performance and bring strategic value to those organizations.
