Chapter 271.102 of the Local Government Code authorizes local governments to participate in a cooperative
purchasing program with another local government or local cooperative organization. Instead of
competitive bidding, items and services may be purchased through such agreements as the agreements have
already been bid by the sponsoring entity or agency. By doing this as a cooperative effort, the combined
purchasing usage of these entities was utilized to realize competitive pricing and reduced administrative
costs of individual bidding.
Pricing obtained through the GSA Cooperative Purchasing Network has been competitively bid and meets
the statutory requirements of Texas Local Government Code 271.102.
