PLEASE NOTE: This solicitation includes the option for the successful vendor to be awarded a Cooperative Contract.
Oakland County Purchasing has developed an inter-governmental Cooperative Purchasing Program for the procurement of goods and/or services.
The primary participants are Counties, Cities, Villages, and Townships in the lower half of Michigan. The purpose of this program is to obtain an overall lower cost for all participants by combining volumes, increasing purchasing power, and realizing efficiencies.
After a registered vendor is awarded a contract through the bid process, they may join the Cooperative Purchasing program by simply filling out a Current Contract Holder Opt In form Oakland County requires that the awarded vendor will authorize their contract availability on the Cooperative program website. Once signed, vendors agree to supply the goods and/or services at the established County contract pricing to other Government entities.
All purchasing requests by government entities will be conducted between that entity and the awarded contract holder; purchase orders should be submitted and invoiced directly. Payments will be remitted by the ordering government entity on a direct and individual basis with the contracted vendor, in accordance with the contract pricing and terms.
