About Equalis Group

Equalis Group is a national cooperative purchasing organization that provides contracts competitively solicited by public agencies (Lead Agencies) for a wide array of products and services. Equalis Master Agreements are established through competitive solicitations conducted in accordance with public procurement guidelines ensuring members stay in compliance.

 

Equalis works hand-in-hand with its members and Lead Agencies to develop and deliver industry-leading solutions from highly qualified and experienced suppliers, including Acer America Corporation. Public sector entities across the country can utilize Equalis cooperative agreements to:

1.       Quickly acquire the products and services they need;

2.       Receive better pricing through the collective buying power of Equalis Members;

3.       Leverage the expertise of awarded suppliers to develop the best solutions; and,

4.       Save time through Equalis’ legal and compliant exemption to conducting their own resource-consuming solicitation process.

 

Equalis is a Member-Driven organization that believes in the power of partnership: when working together, we achieve more.

 

Master Agreement Procurement Process

The Cooperative Council of Governments (CCOG), an Equalis lead agency, conducted a rigorous and transparent competitive public sector procurement process for RFP # COG-2160A.  CCOG evaluated each response on both qualitative and cost criteria and awarded a contract to Acer America Corporation as the responsible offeror whose proposal is most advantageous.
