FAI coordinates with the Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP), the FAI Board of Directors and the Chief Acquisition Officers
(CAO)Council, and DAU to identify training needs and set priorities for use of the fund. OFPP provides guidance on Administration initiatives and new issues in acquisition.
