Cooperative purchasing organizations
Pre-competed purchasing contracts that let public agencies select their roofing contractor and issue a purchase order — without running a full bid cycle.
Pre-competed contracts. Faster procurement.
Cooperative purchasing organizations provide purchasing contracts to public agencies. The purchasing contracts have been pre-competed, which allows the public agency to utilize them by issuing a purchase order against the existing contract. This streamlines the purchasing process and allows the agency to reach into the marketplace and select the contractor & proposal they want to utilize.
For roofing projects, that means a school district or municipality can award work to Design Roof Services through a contract that has already satisfied competitive-bid requirements — cutting months off procurement while staying fully compliant.
