9. SUMMARY AND NEXT STEPS
priority focus is on creating opportunities for M/WBE goal achievement and compliance.
For 2017 the aspirational goals need to be update
In 2017 a procurement disparity update study is due to be performed. Consistently work with the M/WBE Advisory Committee on recommendations to improve the program and ensure the program meets its policy and goal objectives.
Continue to increase awareness of the PPS-M/WBE Program. Increase vendor development and outreach efforts.

10. Vendor Rotation
PPS should consider the selective use of vendor rotation to expand utilization of underutilized M/WBE groups. Some political jurisdictions use vendor rotation arrangements to limit habitual and repetitive purchases from incumbent majority firms, and to ensure that SWaMs have an opportunity to bid along with majority firms.

11. Acknowledgements
The FY 2016 Annual Report was prepared by Transformation Consultants, Lee Brazzell, CEO and Project Manager, in collaboration with the staff of PPS and Anthony Cannion, Purchasing Manager.
The Consultants thank the School Board and staff for the opportunity to assist PPS with an initiative that has far produced reaching and positive implications for Portsmouth and the greater region.
We look forward to continuing to work cooperatively with PPS through the transition from Transformation Consulting to administering the Program full time in-house.
