Graybar Electric Company, Inc.

OMNIA Partners works to connect the public sector to collective buying power. Our Graybar cooperative contract provides public sector agencies with cost-saving solutions for any data/communication, networking, wireless, security, electrical and lighting needs. When organizations choose the Graybar cooperative contract through OMNIA Partners, they will receive savings and value that go beyond costs. This cooperative contract allows your organization to maximize savings on the products you need while reducing procurement time.

U.S. Communities and National IPA, both wholly-owned subsidiaries of OMNIA Partners, have come together as OMNIA Partners, Public Sector. All public sector participants already registered with National IPA or U.S. Communities continue to have access to all contracts, with certain exceptions, in the portfolio and do not need to re-register to use a legacy National IPA, legacy U.S. Communities, or new OMNIA Partners contract. U.S. Communities and National IPA remain separate legal entities and lead agency contracts completed under each brand are effective and available for use through the contract’s approved term. In the event we believe re-registration is necessary for any reason, OMNIA Partners will let you know.

• The OMNIA Partners pricing applies to normally stocked Graybar materials.
• Discounts are based on Graybar List Price or Cost in effect at the time of order. The majority of pricing on the Graybar contracts is based on a listless discount structure.
• Cost-Plus discounting is used for market sensitive commodities and lighting fixtures.
• Not-To-Exceed discounting is used for value-added services and material with no list price in our system.
• Graybar cannot sell at levels above the base contract price and reserves the right to offer a lesser discount for projects, or where large quantity discounts or localized supplier negotiations are available.

• Next day service is free of charge for materials stocked in the branch and within the standard service area
• Orders requiring same-day or expedited next-day service, non-stock items, special order or special handling and materials obtained from other Graybar warehouses or manufacturers, may include shipping or handling charges. Any shipping, handling or other costs will be negotiated at the time of order
• Next-Day Delivery: Graybar's Delivery Advantage tracks and documents deliveries which enables us to provide customers with real-time delivery status and other valuable details on incoming deliveries. Our innovative system gives you critical details on incoming deliveries, including:

- Exact delivery date and time
- Electronic image of recipient signature
- Electronic image of delivered product
- Aerial view of delivery location

Graybar uses the order consolidation process when items for a single customer order are being obtained from various sources and are to be re-shipped as one shipment to the customer. 

Through cooperative purchasing laws, the City of Kansas, MO contract, available through OMNIA Partners, by virtue of its public solicitation language, generally meets the requirements for solicitation in the entire United States. This allows agencies to use the pricing without taking the time to create solicitation documents, entertain multiple vendor inquiries and document the solicitations. Placing the order through Graybar allows them to utilize a quality vendor repetitively without the cost of using unknown or less reliable vendors. View State Statutes for more details.

There are no costs, minimum quantity requirements or spend limits.

The OMNIA Partners pricing is the same pricing used to win the City of Kansas City, MO, EV2370 contract for Electrical, Lighting, Data Communications and Security Products and Related Products, Services and Solutions. 

The key value for the agency is resource savings. Most agencies today are spread thinner than ever. Agencies are downsizing administrative departments and retiring or departing purchasing and maintenance positions are left unfilled. The contract available through OMNIA Partners provides a mechanism to save the time and costs associated with obtaining quotes or preparing solicitations.
