What is GSA Cooperative Purchasing? 

Cooperative Purchasing enables state and local governments to purchase directly from GSA Schedule contracts just like Federal agencies. Note: Cooperative Purchasing is limited to IT, security, and law enforcement products and services under certain special item numbers (See list here).  

What are key benefits of Cooperative Purchasing? 

State and Local Government Customers:

  • Pre-negotiated terms and pricing provide a faster path through procurement.
  • GSA Schedule contracts are considered competitively solicited and satisfy state and local legal requirements for purchasing.
  • Customer entities can scale back dedicated procurement personnel by not maintaining their own contract vehicles.

Contract Holders:

  • Faster sales cycle through customer adoption of cooperative purchasing contracts.
  • Access to the entire state and local government market.
  • Ability to shrink the number of contract vehicles required to sell to customers.
