What is a Purchasing Cooperative?

A “purchasing cooperative” is a type of cooperative arrangement, often among businesses or government agencies, to agree to aggregate demand to get lower prices from selected suppliers. It is often used by local and state government agencies to reduce the cost and effort of procurement.

Why OMNIA Partners?

If you are not familiar with OMNIA Partners, it’s likely your colleagues already work with them. In fact, 94% of agencies nationwide purchase through an OMNIA Partners cooperative contract.

OMNIA Partners is the nation’s largest and most experienced cooperative purchasing organization dedicated to public sector procurement. Their immense purchasing power and industry-leading suppliers have produced a comprehensive portfolio of cooperative contracts and partnerships, making OMNIA Partners the most valued and trusted resource for organizations nationwide.

Corrections agencies can benefit from that relationship to bypass the RFP process and purchase goods and services through contracts already competitively solicited and awarded. If your agency is short-staffed and/or facing budget constraints, contracting through OMNIA Partners can significantly reduce the time investment and cost.
