Albany County Interagency Purchasing Cooperative

Albany County has created the Albany County Interagency Purchasing Cooperative for the purpose of accruing cost savings by utilizing “economics of scale” in joint purchasing initiatives with the political subdivisions within Albany County. This cooperative shall include any town, city, village or school district that passes a similar resolution with their approving board to bid jointly for goods and/or services.

All Albany County political subdivisions can benefit from a program designed to purchase items that are in common use under the umbrella of a cooperative single bid procedure.

The Albany County DGS Purchasing Division will be the lead agency and it is understood and agreed that each participating entity will make its own separate purchase agreement with selected bidders; that each entity shall only be liable to the successful bidder for materials/supplies/services contracted by such entity, without any further liability for purchases contracted for by any other participating entity; and each bid winner shall be required to bill each participating entity directly for purchases contracted by it.

Please contact Karen A. Storm, Purchasing Agent if you are interested in becoming a partner in this initiative.
