Trivial awards, refs are PR. No notability.  DGG ( talk ) 03:16, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment There are some sources that look pretty good, but they are primarily about the org's surveys. CorporateM (Talk) 02:18, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment The resources are solid, including the awards. Perspective on the awards being trivial comes from a librarian, not a professional that understands the manufacturing and supply chain markets. Only four of the 12 references are connected to the company's benchmarked surveys. (Talk) 03:28, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Uncertain as my searches found virtually nothing but the article albeit not entirely good is acceptable I suppose. I'd like to hear from other users to better form my vote. SwisterTwister   talk  05:31, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete: -- blatant business promotionalism. Quis separabit?  17:17, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: -- this page can be improved, but is a worthy example of a Group Purchasing Organization. GPOs are very popular in insurance and manufacturing. Also noteworthy because it is founded by and run by a woman in a male-dominated industry. The founder and her career are referenced in General Managers in Action, 1992, by Harvard Professor Frank Aguilar. She is also noted in the book Managing Corporate Ethics , also by Frank Aguilar and published in 1994 by Oxford University Press, and in Lessons in Leadership by Charles Bernstein, 1993. In 1987, Harvard Business School published a case study on O'Sullivan and her management challenges at Groen (which is still in use at business schools across the US).

 * Delete. Seems to be promotional, but that's not a reason in itself to delete. Sourcing is entirely routine business coverage. BusterD (talk) 04:26, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Actually, per WP:DEL-REASON, if an article is purely promotional/advertising, that is a reason for deletion. Regardless, this particular article doesn't meet WP:GNG, as per searches on the engines.  Onel 5969  TT me 16:45, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
