Acquisition awards honor innovative business solutions
For the third year, Government Executive, the Council for Excellence in Government and the Office of Federal Procurement Policy have teamed up to honor innovative acquisition strategies.
The Business Solutions in the Public Interest awards identify and celebrate acquisition teams who have used the procurement process effectively and creatively to help achieve agency missions.
With a shrinking pool of acquisition experts in government, it has become increasingly important for these teams to work innovatively, efficiently and with a clear sense of purpose.
This year, 70 applications for the awards were received. After the list was narrowed to 12 finalists, a panel of government and industry experts selected four winners:
- Defense Department: Building Innovation
- Defense Department: Doctor's Orders
- General Services Administration: Online Business Intelligence
- Navy and Marine Corps: Comfortable Living
The award winners will be honored at a ceremony on Thursday, Sept. 5, at the Hotel Washington in Washington.
