If your buying process still involves sending out RFPs (Request for Proposal) and waiting for bids, it’s time you discover the faster, smarter, legally compliant way to buy: using a contract through School Specialty.
The Advantages of Contract Buying
Save Money
- Legally negotiated and awarded purchasing contracts offer you discounted pricing and value-added features
- Consolidating your purchasing with School Specialty through a contract means fewer POs and invoices to issue and manage, lowering your administrative costs
Stay Legally Compliant
- A legally compliant contract meets state and local bidding requirements as a replacement for district solicitations or quotes
- Buy with confidence, knowing your purchases are legally covered and meet your procurement requirements
- All 50 states allow the use of local, state, and national purchasing contracts
Save Time and Streamline the Purchasing Process
- Unlike school district bids that may focus on just one need, purchasing contracts span a wide range of products so you can find savings on virtually anything you need through one source
- Leveraging a contract cuts down the resources and time needed to issue a bid, a lifesaver for short-staffed districts
- Erase months of bid-process time and hassle, getting what you need in just days
