"It's great to hear our customers tell us what we believe about ourselves-that we're helpful and professional and strive to deliver a first-rate customer experience at every touch point," said GPO Director Hugh Nathanial Halpern. "Customer satisfaction is central to keeping our customers and their agencies coming back time after time."

The 2024 biennial survey marks the second time that GPO conducted a customer service survey after implementing its post-pandemic telework/remote work policy and serves as evidence of the success of that policy. GPO is utilizing survey data to identify new business opportunities and develop plans to address any noteworthy issues identified by its customers.
