The Madison Institute for Federal Markets

The Madison Institute for Federal Markets is an independent entity within ConningtonSnow that funds independent academic research into the institutions, policies, and market structures that shape federal procurement and public-sector performance.

The Institute seeks to expand scholarly understanding of federal markets through rigorous research examining competition, institutional design, acquisition policy, governance, and the relationship between governmentwide coordination and agency-level decision-making.

Our goal is to foster research that informs academic debate, enriches policy discussions, and improves understanding of the institutions through which the federal government participates in markets.
