Chief Procurement Officers Roundtable Provides Access to Purchasing Officials
In 2012 the Cleveland MBDA Business Center launched the "Chief Procurement Officers Roundtable" to facilitate meetings between the best, brightest, and most capable suppliers with key purchasing officials from the private and public sectors. As a result of this initiative, PuroClean Professional Services, an emergency property restoration firm, secured a $1.5 million contract to service multiple facilities across six-states. Originally established as a two person operation, the company has experienced tremendous growth and now has 22 employees.
