Leverage your buying power through Collaborative Buying!
The value of pooling purchases is an accepted, proven tool for lowering costs, but organizing cooperative purchases can be difficult and time consuming. DEPO's easy-to-use platform removes all obstacles and allows you to pool your high-ticket capital equipment and commodity product purchases with others to create greater volume that is more attractive to suppliers.
Small volume buyers enjoy the same base pricing as large buyers.
State and local government agencies and other entities such as schools, hospital districts, airports, transit agencies and associations of governments,
when combined, create enormous buying power.
By aggregating local, regional and national demand for commonly purchased commodities and capital
assets, you can significantly leverage your buying power, resulting in improved pricing from suppliers and important and necessary savings for your
entity.
