What is a Cooperative?
A purchasing system in which a local contracting unit advertises for bids and awards a master contract to a successful vendor for its own quantities and the estimated quantities submitted by the individual registered members
This aggregates the buying power of many local units to drive pricing down and save taxpayer money.
