Each year at the CoreTrust Conference, we recognize supplier partners who demonstrate what true partnership looks like in practice. The CTC26 Supplier Awards celebrate organizations that go beyond contract delivery—partners who show up with consistency, collaborate intentionally, and help drive measurable outcomes for members.
We are proud to announce the CTC26 Supplier Award winners and highlight the role they play in advancing procurement performance across our community.
Why the CTC Supplier Awards Matter
Suppliers play a critical role in how value is realized, how programs are adopted, and how outcomes are sustained over time. By highlighting these partners, CoreTrust helps define what best‑in‑class supplier engagement looks like setting a benchmark for collaboration, accountability, and results.
CTC26 Supplier Award Winners
Most Innovative Award
Winner: Ramp
The Most Innovative Award recognizes a partner whose approach has driven meaningful change, raising expectations for speed, usability, and measurable value.
Ramp earned this recognition by redefining how value is delivered in a traditionally complex category. Through a strong focus on technology, automation, and AI‑enabled capabilities, Ramp has helped accelerate how members realize savings while simplifying processes.
As one member shared, “Ramp is a breath of fresh air in a long‑standing problem area.”
Most Collaborative Award
Winner: Canteen One
The Most Collaborative Award recognizes a supplier that consistently demonstrates proactive, aligned, and trust‑driven partnership.
Canteen One stood out not only for what they deliver, but for how they engage. Their team has invested in deeper alignment with CoreTrust and member organizations—adding resources, engaging early in the process, and working closely to ensure solutions meet real operational needs.
This award highlights the importance of partnership as a discipline—one that requires consistency, communication, and a long‑term commitment to success.
