NCPP is unveiling the results of the RFP Tracking Project during NIGP FORUM, and excited on these new steps with Pavilion to continue the effort!
𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝘂𝗻 𝗮 𝗽𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁? 🤔 Last year, the NIGP: The Institute for Public Procurement Business Council, together with Eric J. Dickey from University of North Florida and Maria Agrusa from County of Orange (Procurement) about the Cost to Procure (how much it costs public entities to run a new solicitation or bid) and the Cost to Propose (how much it costs suppliers to respond to bids or solicitations). These leaders discussed calculating costs to be able to make more data-driven decisions around choosing a purchasing pathway for their organization, specifically whether to solicit / bid or piggyback using an existing contract. Since that conversation, National Cooperative Procurement Partners led by Tammy Rimes, MPA has worked with dozens of public entities to collect and analyze data around their costs to procure.(You'll be able to read their first-ever RFP Tracking Report at #NIGPForum in just a few more days!) 📈 💵 Now, I'm excited to share that Pavilion has built a 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 to support this groundbreaking work. The Calculator makes it really easy for any agency to estimate their cost to procure by leveraging the data that other entities have already collected! This aligns with Pavilion's overall mission of using technology to empower public servants and ultimately help deliver better, faster public services to our communities across the country. 💙 DM me or comment here, stop by our booth # 1130 at #NIGPForum or attend Tammy Rimes, MPA's session at Forum to get access to this free tool and learn more about this project!
