@BuySocialCanada As a former customer of Brad, I look forward to the insights from thee staple in the grand stationery industry across Canada. Customer service and marketing were something he never toyed with-he lived it. Brad connected me with business social responsibilities along with David.

A couple of observations on CV19:
Government Ministers talk about supply chains but know little about how they function; procurement staff are focused on fairness, transparency and price while they lack PPE products when we need them. Refocus on assurance of supply!

[Larry Berglund @LarryBerglund]

Pleased to see the interest in procurement policy reviews during this time of limited operations in both private and public sector organizations.
My colleague James Joerin and I are busy updating policies and bid templates. Getting ready for post CV19 reality.

Whatever you do:

Plan It For The Planet!
