After long careers of faithful service to the State of Georgia, please join us in extending congratulations and farewell to our recent retirees!
(More lists coming soon!)
The Department of Administrative Services (DOAS) was recognized today with the 2018 Georgia’s Technology Innovation Showcase Award for implementation of a new Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system and deployment of an integrated policy automation tool. The project, which received top honors at the Georgia Digital Government Summit, included a working team of DOAS staff from multiple business units. It also involved collaborating with the State Accounting Office to transition the platform behind shared customer service center requests. The policy automation tool allows for transitioning paper-based activities and related approvals into electronic-based data processing and workflow. Congratulations to all who participated in this project!
Staff from the Georgia Department of Administrative Services’ Purchasing Division visit Gov. Nathan Deal to celebrate Purchasing Month in Georgia.
Governor Nathan Deal has signed a proclamation declaring March as “Purchasing Month” in Georgia – a month when the state will recognize the purchasing and materials management professions who play a significant role in the efficiency and effectiveness of both the public and private sectors by balancing and negotiating time, source and price.
More than 600 state, local, and federal employees provide valuable training and educational services in the areas of procurement and materials management.
Throughout the month, the Georgia Chapter of NIGP, Inc., GPAG, and other professional purchasing associations will engage in efforts to inform the public about the important role played by the purchasing profession in business, industry, and government.
