INTRODUCTION
Who are we?
1Government Procurement Alliance (1GPA), is a non-profit national governmental purchasing cooperative which allows public
agencies to take advantage of existing contracts to purchase the goods and services they need from local and national vendors.
Eligible using members include school districts, charter schools, universities, colleges, cities, towns, municipalities, counties,
states, local governments, federal government, Native American communities, fire districts, and any other political subdivision.
What do we do?
We provide contracts for a broad range of commodities and services that are available to the Cooperative eligible members
through a government purchasing cooperative or Interlocal agreement. All of our contracts are competitively procured and
awarded in compliance with state statutes, procurement laws and regulations.
Contracts are approved and awarded by 1GPA’s lead governmental entities and are only available for use and benefit of all
entities complying with state procurement laws and regulations.
Why are we preferred?
The Cooperative’s pooled purchasing power means public and private schools, cities, counties and state agencies, non-profits,
as well as colleges, universities and Native American communities can save actual budget dollars on our contracts utilizing
best business practices.
Our agency is dedicated to negotiating the best contracts with the best firms locally or nationally to ensure our members receive
quality products and services at the best price.
We service our members by providing in-house knowledge of public procurement practices in conjunction with quality business
practices to mainstream the purchasing process for large and complex solicitations that can take up to 6 to 12 months for our
members on their own.
We pride our firm on our commitment to compliance, innovation, and collaboration.
As a government purchasing cooperative, 1GPA offers its Members access to a broad range of vendors whose goods and services have
been competitively procured by 1GPA, in coordination with its governmental lead agencies. When conducting competitive solicitations,
1GPA takes all steps necessary to comply with federal, state and local procurement laws applicable to both the Lead Agency identified
in the solicitation, as well as to 1GPA. Each Member must make its own independent determination as to (1) whether the Member may,
under laws applicable to the Member, lawfully purchase particular goods or services through purchasing cooperatives, and (2) whether
the Member must comply with any additional procedures required under laws applicable to the Member prior to completing a
cooperative purchase. 1GPA makes no representations or warranties to its Members, or to any vendors, regarding such matters.
