City Council Meeting · 2026-05-12 · agenda_item

This agenda item concerns a Master Agreement to define roles for Sourcewell, Suppliers, and Participating Entities within Sourcewell's Cooperative Purchasing Program. The program allows eligible public agencies, known as Participating Entities, to access goods and services. Suppliers under this agreement will offer solutions to these Participating Entities. Suppliers will educate their sales and service forces about Sourcewell eligibility requirements and necessary documentation. Suppliers will be responsible for ensuring sales are made to Participating Entities. This item is currently under review by the City Council. The scope of work involves establishing contractual relationships and administrative processes for cooperative purchasing. This early stage in the review process presents an opportunity for businesses that supply goods or services to public entities to understand the program's framework and potentially engage with suppliers or participating entities as the agreement is finalized. Reaching out now allows businesses to align their offerings before specific procurement needs are defined.
