Welcome to Purchasing Solutions Alliance

Purchasing Solutions Alliance (PSA) is a nationwide purchasing cooperative for public agencies.

Cooperative Purchasing combines the purchasing power of agencies nationwide to leverage the benefits of volume purchases. Cooperative Purchasing Contracts can be negotiated with significantly lower pricing because vendors know that sales will be significantly higher. Cooperative Purchasing has the added benefit of saving you time and resources by relieving you of the burden of procurement documentation requirements, advertisement costs, and contract management.

Cooperative Contracts


How to Buy

Buying through PSA is simple:

1.      Contact the vendor directly. PSA members can work directly with awarded vendors to discuss their needs and place orders.

2.      Reference the PSA contract. Depending on the goods or services, your agency may need a separate agreement with the vendor. Include the PSA contract number in your purchase order and any agreement to connect your purchase to the competitively awarded contract.

3.      Place your order—and you’re done! PSA requires no separate purchase reporting. You do not need to send us your purchase orders.

Procurement Integrity

All contracts offered through PSA have been formally procured using the competitive sourcing processes mandated by state and federal procurement laws and regulations. Generally, formal Request for Proposals (RFPs) are used to determine the highest ranked vendor that provides the best value in terms of quality of products/services, delivery terms, customer service, reputation and pricing.
