ProcurePro - 2019 A Year in Review

The holidays and a new year are quickly approaching, and what a whirlwind year this has been for us here at ProcurePro! It is a time of excitement but also a time to reflect on the accomplishments of the last year while looking ahead to the promise of 2020. We would like to share with you some of what we have been up to over the past year. What a year it has been!

Late in 2018 we held our annual Strategic Planning Session with some of our employees and key stakeholders. The feedback we received during this session was that while we have a lot of great ideas for growing our business, we really needed to become more laser focused on our overall goals and objectives.

Fail to Plan, Plan to Fail!

With that in mind, we created a plan for 2019 and focused our time and energy on:

·       Growing our Client Base
·       Brand & Company Awareness
·       Expansion of Services

Guess what? Our focus paid off … this has been ProcurePro’s most successful year yet! So, what have we been up to you ask?

Customer Testimonial - Girls Inc.

“ProcurePro looked at our existing agreement for our multi-function printer, copier and supplies. To simplify and save money, Jill recommended we completely outsource our requirements to a third party supplier. She took the lead in developing the requirements, running the competitive bid process and negotiated a new agreement with our supplier. This allowed us to completely outsource our printer and copier requirements including upgrading our aging leased equipment, supplies, improving the servicing and reducing our overall costs.”
