Lexington, Ky-

The National Association of State Chief Administrators (NASCA) announced that Periscope Holdings, along with state partner Arkansas, has been awarded the association’s 2021 Excellence through Collaboration award.

This award recognizes corporate partner companies that have partnered with a state to implement a program, project or service that positively impacts its service to the state. The nominations are reviewed by experienced state Chief Administrators based on collaboration and value added to the state.

This year’s recipient, Periscope Holdings, partnered with the State of Arkansas, for their project “Partnering for Procurement Transformation.”  Periscope Holdings, and the State of Arkansas as their partner, was announced as the recipient at NASCA’s CAO Leadership Summit in Coronado, California.

“Periscope Holdings collaboration with the State of Arkansas exemplifies the successful execution of a state and corporate partnership working together for the good of state employees, customers and citizens,” said Pam Goins, Executive Director of NASCA.  “The joint implementation of ARBuy streamlines processes, saves time and money and overall is a win-win for all involved.”

The focus of “Partnering for Procurement Transformation” between the State of Arkansas and Periscope Holdings is their ARBuy project.  ARBuy simplifies the procurement process, while making it easier for Arkansas local businesses to bid on contracts, saving taxpayers time and money.   Governor Hutchinson lauded it as “another step in transforming the way the state does business so that we are even more transparent and efficient.”
