County Procurement

County purchasing officials can save both time and money with U.S. Communities, the leading national government purchasing cooperative. We provide county governments with an easy way to access the best overall government pricing from 29 nationally recognized suppliers. These suppliers offer thousands of the best brands in a wide variety of categories, services, and solutions.

County Procurement Made Easy

If your agency is required to issue a request for proposal (RFP) when making county government procurement decisions, U.S. Communities can significantly shorten the process for your organization.

All U.S. Communities contracts have been competitively solicited by a lead public agency in accordance with its public purchasing rules and regulations. Each solicitation contains language allowing any public agency to purchase through that contract and access the pricing and other benefits contained therein. Every U.S. Communities contract is available for county procurement officials to use subject to their own purchasing rules and regulations.

Each state has its own authorizing statutes for cooperative purchasing.
