The City of Sarasota Purchasing Division was awarded the 2017 Annual Achievement of Excellence in Procurement Award from the National Procurement Institute. This professional achievement recognizes national best practices in the field of procurement. The City of Sarasota is one of just 24 recipients in Florida and one of 68 cities in the United States and Canada to be honored with this accolade known to purchasing professionals as the 'pinnacle of procurement.’ The Achievement of Excellence in Procurement Award is bestowed to government and nonprofit organizations that earn a high score based on standardized criteria, including outstanding performance with e-procurement, productivity, professionalism, leadership and innovation. This recognition encourages continual development and improvement with procurement. The City's Purchasing Division facilitates formal solicitations (bids, requests for proposal, invitations to negotiation) purchase orders (for everything from construction services to office supplies to professional services) and purchase card transactions. This is the third consecutive year the Purchasing Division has been recognized with the Achievement of Excellence in Procurement Award.
