🚫 3 Common Procurement Mistakes (and How to Avoid Them)

Even experienced public procurement teams can run into challenges that slow down projects, increase costs, or limit supplier options. Here are three common pitfalls and how to avoid them:

1️⃣ Relying on limited sourcing options
Narrow supplier pools can reduce competition and value.

2️⃣ Lengthy procurement timelines
Traditional processes can delay critical projects and service delivery.

3️⃣ Inconsistent contract compliance
Without standardized agreements, oversight and accountability become more complex.

💡 The solution? Cooperative Purchasing.

HGACBuy provides public agencies with access to competitively solicited contracts designed to help simplify procurement and support more efficient purchasing workflows.

Behind every successful cooperative contract is something just as important as the agreement itself - a strong relationship.

At HGACBuy, we believe getting to know our awarded suppliers helps us better serve our members. Recently, we had the pleasure of meeting with Shannon Russell and Brandi Britton from Robert Half to learn more about their team, their expertise, and how they support organizations with workforce and staffing solutions.

These conversations aren't about contracts, they're about building partnerships. By understanding each supplier's strengths and approach to service, we're better equipped to connect our members with the right resources when needs arise.

Thank you to the Robert Half team for sharing their insights. We look forward to continuing these conversations with all of our HGACBuy suppliers as we work together to deliver exceptional value to our members.

If your agency is exploring staffing solutions, our Temporary Staffing, Direct-Hire, and Other Employer Services Contract is one of many resources available through HGACBuy:
