| Great job, Garett! |
Procurement Services' Garrett Morris has developed a valuable new resource that’s set to make a big impact across UVA. His new Contract Administrator training presentation is designed to help departments better understand their responsibilities once formal procurement processes are complete.
By clarifying contract administration roles, the training empowers units to manage supplier relationships more effectively, streamline operations, reduce risk, and ensure performance standards are met. This work is a great example of how thoughtful, proactive tools can strengthen University-wide processes and outcomes.

Shoutout to Sarah Johnson-Ward of Procurement Services for her outstanding work finalizing the Child Care & Backup Care Services RFP—on behalf of UVA Academic, UVA Medical Center, and UPG. From initial development through evaluations, presentations, negotiations, and final awards, this complex process took over a year—and Sarah navigated every step with expertise, diligence, and care.
