Simplify your public procurement process

Public buying isn’t easy. Whether you’re purchasing hundreds of computers for a school district or a single truck for a fire department, every purchase you make needs to satisfy a rigorous public solicitation process. Developing a Request for Proposal (RFP), evaluating proposals, and awarding contracts while adhering to complex laws and regulations takes times and meticulous attention to detail. We can help. 

At Sourcewell, we streamline public procurement with cooperative purchasing. This method involves government procurement conducted by, or on behalf of, one or more government units, allowing other government units to leverage these contracts.

Cooperative contracts make public buying easier

Sourcewell conducting solicitations on behalf of all eligible government agencies. Harnessing the buying power of thousands of participating agencies, we award highly competitive contracts to high quality suppliers. Once we establish a contract, any public agency in the United States can use that contract to purchase from a supplier. Using Sourcewell cooperative contracts streamlines procurement, allowing you to spend more time serving your community.
