Wake Forest, NC – Carla Baker, President of Southeastern Emergency Equipment, has announced the creation of a Bids & Contracts Department and the promotion of Kaile Rizzo to lead that department. As Director of Bids & Contracts, Rizzo will lead this department in its responsibility for the completion, submission and follow-up on bids for the organization.
“Southeastern Emergency Equipment realizes the demand for a streamlined Bids & Contracts Department which will benefit both our valued customers and our key manufacturers,” said Baker. As Director of Bids & Contracts, Rizzo will be actively seeking and pursuing bids for new markets and customers, while also providing competitive bids for existing accounts. This will provide our customers with the most competitive pricing in the market and increase market exposure for our manufacturing partners. Rizzo will be responsible for the continued development of the department, the expansion of staff, and the growth of the company through more effective use of bids and contracts.
Rizzo started with Southeastern Emergency Equipment in 2004 as part of the Purchasing & Accounts Payable departments. As her knowledge of the emergency medical equipment and supply industry grew, she took on many additional pivotal tasks which helped several of the company’s departments. Rizzo spent the past 3 years working primarily with the Purchasing Department. Through this work, she has built many relationships with key manufacturers, which will benefit Southeastern’s newest department, Bids & Contracts.
Rizzo grew up in South Central New York State. She graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a major in Journalism and Mass Communication.
