PSA's membership, which extends nationwide, will be able to contract directly with BidSync for e-procurement solutions to reduce acquisition expenses and procurement cycle times while increasing operational efficiencies across the board.

"BidSync demonstrates superiority with a proven track record of commitment in providing high-quality, easy-to-use and competitively priced e-procurement solutions," said Michael Lucas, program manager of Purchasing Solutions Alliance. "The PSA/BidSync contract is an excellent opportunity for our cooperative of government, education and non-profit organizations to improve their procurement processes, achieve more efficiency each day, and appreciate savings on their purchases and return on investments for the future."

Members of PSA's co-op can employ any or all of BidSync's suite of e-procurement solutions, used by more than 1,000 public agencies nationwide, including:

• BidSync Source™ (www.bidsync.com/eprocurement/products/source), which allows government agencies to electronically create, manage and award service and product solicitations to a national database of more than 700,000 vendors.

About Purchasing Solutions Alliance
In 2008, the Brazos Valley Council of Governments' (BVCOG) Board of Directors unanimously approved a resolution creating Purchasing Solutions Alliance (PSA), a purchasing cooperative for public agencies. The purpose of PSA is to identify qualified vendors of goods and services, comply with state and federal bidding requirements and relieve the burdens of governmental purchasing by realizing economies of scale. Products offered through PSA have been subjected to either the formal competitive bid or proposal process. PSA generally utilizes the formal Request for Proposal (RFP) method, as it allows for negotiation with the highest-ranked vendor and ultimately provides the best value for PSA participating and prospective member agencies. PSA is an optional use program, and there is no fee for agencies to participate. For more information, visit www.psabuy.org.
