Title

Congratulations to the Procurement Department represented by Celeste Walker, Finance Assistant Director for Procurement, recipient of the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Outstanding Agency Accreditation Award - OA4.

Body

The OA4 award formally recognizes excellence in public procurement through the establishment of a body of standards that evidence sound procurement practice.  The certificate and achievement represents a testament to the procurement team’s commitment to professional practice and demonstrated abilities.

 

The City of Coral Gables Procurement Division belongs to an elite group of procurement organizations.  While the NIGP membership represents over 3,000 governmental agencies throughout the United States and Canada, only 154 governments have attained this distinction. 

 

This achievement reinforces the credibility of our procurement team.
