What Our Clients Are Saying


Your procurement team has been extremely responsive and pushed all the last minute contracts through the system quickly! I am so appreciative. Your team is awesome.
Leadership Organization
I would like to recognize the team at M&IW that assisted us in negotiating back some dollars as a result of poor communication from the venue - $15K will now be sent back to the area as a result of their tenacity and willingness to go to bat for us!
National Foodservice Client
I wanted to share with you the excellent work the M&IW Buyer did on the Hotel contract for our program. The contract was very large and over $3M. It came to finance VERY clean. The Buyer provided excellent lift so Finance could prepare executables and flip it very quickly. Excellent team work and a job well done!
