National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA)

The National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA), now known as Sourcewell, is a government organization that helps local governments, schools, and non-profits save time and money by pre-negotiating contracts for products and services such as vehicles, technology, and equipment. Instead of each entity conducting separate, lengthy bidding processes, they can purchase directly through these approved contracts. This collective purchasing power streamlines procurement, ensures competitive pricing, and simplifies compliance with procurement laws, making it easier for public organizations to obtain needed resources efficiently and cost-effectively.
