Now in its 23rd year, the international APEX awards competition recognizes outstanding business publications in the areas of editorial content, graphic design, and success in achieving overall communications effectiveness and excellence. The awards are sponsored by the editors of Writing That Works, a division of Communications Concepts, Inc. The VAO's suite of publications was recognized in the category of Total Publication Programs.
Since 1996, ASI has offered a suite of publications that keeps the federal acquisition community apprised of significant legislative, regulatory, and policy developments; trends; and successful practices that affect the day-to-day execution of federal acquisition. Anne Reed, ASI's Chief Executive Officer, noted, "The world of federal acquisition is remarkably dynamic, subject to daily, weekly, and monthly changes to the many laws, regulations, policies, and initiatives that govern the expenditure of taxpayer funds. The VAO suite of publications keeps federal acquisition professionals up to date. We are honored they have been recognized for excellence."
The VAO's suite of publications includes the daily Today's Acquisition News, monthly Updates and Advisories, as well as the periodic At a Glance, issued as key policy developments occur. This suite serves as a key tool for federal agencies to leverage in developing professionals and continuing the education of their acquisition workforce.
Recent publications have analyzed Federal Supply Schedule changes and OMB's 25-point IT reform plan. Upcoming publications will address the impact that the move toward cloud computing will have on acquisition practices.
The suite of publications is just one feature of ASI's robust Virtual Acquisition Office™ service, which also includes an on-call acquisition help desk and acquisition checklists, samples, templates, and other resources that are kept current as acquisition regulations evolve. The service serves as a force multiplier to maximize the knowledge, productivity and compliance of today's federal acquisition workforce.
Steve Gluckman, President of ASI's Knowledge and Learning Products division and Chief Knowledge Officer, noted, "We are honored to be recognized by APEX. This award reflects the energy, dedication and expertise of our team."
Catherine Poole, Executive Director of ASI's Knowledge and Learning Products division, commented, "Our focus has always been to distill the complexities of the acquisition field into publications that are clear, concise, timely, and value-added to our clients. It is an honor to have our publications recognized by experts in the communications field as achieving that key objective."
