NDESC, through its participation in the Cooperative Purchasing Connection, provides a year-round purchasing program that allows members to buy goods and services as they need them and at significantly discounted prices. Contracts are established through a formal solicitation process conducted according to North Dakota bid laws. As a result, you can purchase from most of these contracts without having to go through the bid process on your own.

NDESC is also a member of the Association of Educational Purchasing Agencies (AEPA). This is a 31-state consortium that bids nationally but awards locally.

Your purchasing team is available for any questions you may have. Please contact us at 888-739-3289,.
