What Is Cooperative Purchasing?

Cooperative contracts are competitively solicited by a lead public agency or state entity, then made available to eligible participants so you can avoid duplicative RFPs, accelerate timelines, and leverage volume pricing. Eligibility commonly includes K-12 and higher education, state & local government, special districts, and many nonprofits (varies by program and state).
