Our story
A cheesesteak at Geno’s in South Philly costs around $13. And you can find 5,000 Yelp reviews to help you choose between Geno’s and Pats, its fierce rival. But when our founder David worked as Pennsylvania’s Chief Procurement Officer, he couldn’t even find 5 online reviews for million-dollar purchases that impacted the lives of citizens across the state.
Something was wrong.
In 2019, he set out to create Procurated, a better way to connect procurement professionals with each other and with the information they need to do their work – as easily as finding the perfect, greasy cheesesteak.
Today, real people, real reviews, and real insights power Procurated, and help 85,000 buyers make informed decisions and pick the right supplier. Every time.
Powerful partnerships
Procurated is powered by 85,000+ public procurement professionals writing reviews and helping manage a complex process that invests more than $2 trillion annually into our schools, first responders, and neighborhoods. We also work with great partners across the public procurement landscape to realize our vision for better procurement and stronger communities.
