About Procurated

David Yarkin founded Procurated in 2019 to solve a problem he experienced personally as Pennsylvania’s Chief Procurement Officer. Buyers are responsible for making critical purchases with taxpayer dollars, often with little to no information about the vendor’s past performance. Consumer technology has shown the power of peer reviews to improve decision making. So David assembled a team of technology experts and applied years of public procurement experience to make consumer tech work in a high-stakes, highly regulated government environment.​ The team has grown rapidly since Procurated’s seed funding round in early 2019 with over a dozen hires from companies like Livingsocial, Xometry, Yelp, and WeddingWire. Procurated has established formal partnerships with three states since launch and has begun to monetize the platform with supplier sponsorships.
