March is Procurement Month

Governor McAuliffe recently announced that Virginia ranks second in the U.S. for procurement practices according to a national survey, stating, “This recognition shows that Virginia is one of the best in the nation when it comes to providing fiscally responsible purchases of the goods and services needed to keep government running.” During FY15, UMW’s Procurement Services contributed to the ranking by conducting more than 70 solicitations and influencing savings to the University in excess of $290,000.
