Cooperative Office Products & Custodial Supplies

This three‑year cooperative procurement establishes a catalog‑based purchasing program for Dutchess County BOCES school districts, covering a broad array of office, classroom, technology, and custodial supplies. Fifteen (15) vendors were awarded contracts to provide discounted items from extensive product catalogs, with discounts ranging from 10 % up to 50 % off list prices. Orders are placed via a centralized BOCES purchasing portal, online catalogs, email, fax, or phone, allowing each district to procure needed items while leveraging volume‑based savings. The agreement includes two optional one‑year extensions, giving the agency flexibility to continue the arrangement through 2030 if desired. • Scope: Office supplies, classroom equipment, IT hardware, cleaning chemicals, breakroom and janitorial items. • Procurement model: Multiple‑award, catalog‑based IDIQ with percentage‑off list‑price discounts. • Term: 1 Jan 2026 – 31 Dec 2028 with two optional one‑year extensions. • Vendor roster: 14 named vendors (plus one unspecified) covering a wide product mix; all vendors complied with certification requirements. • Ordering: Centralized portal plus vendor‑specific online catalogs; many vendors provide free shipping or low‑minimum orders.
