AEP

 

In 1995, the National Purchasing Institute established a program designed to recognize organizational excellence in public procurement.  The Achievement of Excellence in Procurement® (AEP) is awarded annually.  This prestigious award is earned by those organizations that demonstrate excellence by obtaining a high score based on standardized criteria.  The criteria are designed to measure innovation, professionalism, productivity, e-procurement, and leadership attributes of the procurement organization.  Furthermore, The AEP Committee selects recipients for the Outstanding Contribution Award (link to AEP special award).  This award recognizes individuals, groups, or teams that have provided exemplary involvement, dedicated effort, and outstanding contribution to the promotion and development of the AEP.
