Wampler shared how UVA planned and launched its local procurement initiative and how we leveraged Supplier GATEWAY to empower decentralized buyers across grounds. Wampler especially focused on how smaller schools could get such initiatives off the ground, even if they didn't have data skills or dedicated personnel.
While at the meeting, Wampler also led a Supplier Perspectives Panel featuring a variety of supplier representatives engaging the audience with authentic discussion about their side of the purchasing transaction.
Way to go, Shannon!
