Pennsylvania Department of General Services

The 2025 SDBs and Government Procurement Summit, presented by City & State, brought together key figures focused on advancing small and diverse businesses in Pennsylvania’s government contracting space. Greg Kirk, Deputy Secretary for Capital Programs at the Department of General Services (DGS), and Lisa Sanford, Director for Diversity, Inclusivity, and Small Business Opportunities, shared valuable insights on how DGS is delivering on the Shapiro-Davis Administration’s pledge to help Pennsylvania small businesses compete for and win more procurement opportunities. They were joined by Dr. Erica Patterson, DGS Deputy Secretary for Diversity, Inclusion, and Small Business Opportunities, who was on-hand to connect with businesses. Since her recent appointment, Deputy Secretary Patterson is continuing the work to help level the playing field so that more small businesses can compete for state contracts, build stronger communities, and create jobs. #SDBSummit #GovProcurement #SmallBusiness #Diversity #DGS #EconomicGrowth #Pennsylvania
