Recapping MAPP Conference & Vendor Expo

EDC's Connections, Vision and Collaborative Partnerships



The Missouri Association of Public Purchasing (MAPP) Conference on September 26th, 2023 was a resounding success, and Team EDC was thrilled to have a booth and be a part of the Vendor Expo. As a leading Print, Promo, and Fulfillment company, we had the unique opportunity to connect with a myriad of fantastic individuals and organizations dedicated to advancing public procurement practices.


Networking and Connections

One of the most valuable aspects of the MAPP conference was the chance to meet and connect with professionals from various sectors within public procurement. We engaged in insightful conversations about the challenges and innovations in procurement practices, which allowed us to gain a deeper understanding of the evolving landscape.


Sharing EDC's Vision

At our booth, we had the privilege of showcasing EDC's commitment to enhancing public procurement through cutting-edge technology and comprehensive solutions. In addition to our expertise in Print, Promo, and Fulfillment services, we highlighted our latest advancements, including our intuitive ERP that manages organizations day-to-day business activities, such as accounting, finance, procurement, project management, supply chain, and manufacturing. 


Learning from Industry Experts

The MAPP conference also provided a platform for learning from experts in the field. We attended insightful sessions that delved into emerging trends, best practices, and strategies for optimizing procurement operations. These sessions not only enriched our knowledge but also reaffirmed our dedication to staying at the forefront of industry advancements.


Strengthening Partnerships

Building meaningful partnerships is essential for progress, and the conference was a prime opportunity to forge new connections. We met with potential collaborators who share our vision for transforming public procurement and explored potential synergies for future projects and initiatives. We're particularly excited about the opportunity to work with many of these organizations in the near future.


Collaboration is Key

The MAPP conference highlighted the power of collaboration within the public procurement community. By working together, we can drive positive change and elevate procurement practices to new heights.
