The public sector procurement process is designed to be fair, open and transparent while striving to enhance competition. Public organizations need to maximize the number of qualified suppliers who view and respond to solicitations. The Periscope Supplier Network helps facilitate this process, connecting buyers with suppliers thru tools that match solicitation requirements to supplier profiles, increase the visibility of matched solicitations, and make it easier for suppliers to respond.
