“I applaud Susan for her sweeping vision to cut government spending. Her ‘buying smart’ approach to save the state money is both necessary and needed at a time when we all must look for ways to trim spending. Her online ordering system – called TexasSmartBuy – allows state agencies, universities and local governments to search for goods and services and compare prices to get the best value possible. I also commend the comptroller for listening to industries and businesses on how to be more efficient through best practices and technology.”
