Team Intro
The USDS Procurement department encompasses all steps in acquiring goods, services, and works from external suppliers. We work with suppliers to identify the best products and services at the lowest possible cost. The Procurement department also establishes the company's purchasing policies and procedures. These policies define spending limits and provide a list of authorized vendors.

In order to enhance collaboration and cross-functional partnerships, among other things, at this time, our organization follows a hybrid work schedule that requires employees to work in the office 3 days a week, or as directed by their manager/department. We regularly review our hybrid work model, and the specific requirements may change at any time.
