The JLARC Review: The Phantom Echoes of Public Sector Supplier Discontent? (Part 1)
“. . . Because we are not reviewing whether eVA is successful or not, but rather how it impacts one group of users and potential users, the questions do not focus so much on the elements of success that are addressed in Yes Virginia! But try to get at small business impact” e-mail from Chief Legislative Analyst, Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee (April 2009)

You Can Have It All....Just Not All At Once!
Usually, when it comes to attaining our goals and seeing our dreams come true, we have set a timeline or, at least, have one in mind. That is a good thing. It keeps us focused, motivated. It is tangible; it is binary, measurable: have I been, done, reached such-and-such? Yes or no…

It's Up To YOU To Get Yourself Out of Funk
A few years back, my relationship was not looking much healthier than the insane one that came before it. He had some issues that were clearly not designed to empower a committed relationship. He needed to do something about those issues or I was going to jump ship. Well, he wouldn’t. So I did something about it and didn’t jump ship.
Reality Check
Are you one of those people who has been listening to me and others, like Robert Kiyosaki, about generating passive income and investing for a lifetime of prosperity? Maybe you've been wanting to find the "thing" or deal that will bring you retirement now. Or maybe you're just downright sick of having barely enough cash flow and find yourself saying you'll do or buy something once you get more money.

Getting Money Faster
The title of this article sounds like the subject line of a spam email! I'm going to give you all some nuts and bolts about how to attract money faster. My business partner, Eva, calls the "how" a four-letter word.

The other hard part about figuring out how something will manifest itself, is that if you can't figure out the how, you think it can't possibly happen.

Virginia Ranked No 1 in U.S. Report - Does Canada Need a Similar Study?
In yet another example of the value of collaboration over compliance the Commonwealth of Virginia was ranked alongside the States of Washington and Utah as a top performer in the PEW Center’s Grading the States 2008 report. According to the PEW organization’s web site the report, which is designed to assess the “quality of management in the 50 states,” focuses on four key areas of government practice.

My Account
In Part 1 of this posting, I shared with you information from my recent interview with Bob Sievert (Director, eProcurement Bureau for the Commonwealth of Virginia). As indicated, Bob had contacted me in response to the Ariba posting (The Ariba Interviews: Re-engineering the Future of On-Demand, August 31, 2007) indicating that their experiences would “fit nicely” with that article. Needless to say, it did in that it emphasized a number of key points including the importance of leading with process understanding versus technological capabilities.

Yes Virginia Revisited Why some eprocurement initiatives succeed and others dont
In a recent post that appeared in my Procurement Insights Blog titled The Ariba Interviews: Re-engineering the Future of On-Demand, I reviewed a series of interviews I had with a senior executive from Ariba as well as members from the company’s PR firm. Of the considerable feedback I received as a result of the posting the most interesting (and insightful) comments came from the Commonwealth of Virginia.
