Network Distribution® (Network) Awarded a National Cooperative Contract
SCHAUMBURG, IL, June 15, 2020 - Network Distribution (Network), a significant force in global distribution services, is pleased to announce it has been awarded a national cooperative contract by the City of Tucson, Arizona and made available through OMNIA Partners. This competitively solicited and publicly awarded contract includes janitorial and sanitation supplies, equipment, and related services.
The cooperative contracting language contained in the agreement enables Network to provide public procurement agencies and educational institutions across the country with janitorial and sanitation solutions, while reducing procurement costs. Documentation on the contract can be found on the OMNIA Partners microsite. This newly executed contract is effective June 1, 2020, and includes options to renew through May 31, 2025.
“Based on the successful partnership we have built with the City of Tucson and OMNIA Partners over the last decade, we are very excited to continue our relationship under the new contract,” remarked Frank Barretta, Executive Director, BSC, Sales. “The City of Tucson and OMNIA Partners are best-in-class organizations that know how to do public procurement right, and we look forward to working with them again,” concluded Barretta.
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.

Mid-Atlantic School District Case Study

THE CHALLENGE
During the height of the COVID-19 Pandemic, a large public school system located in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States was in desperate need of pandemic supplies to protect the well-being of their students, staff and parents. Serving over 60,000 students ranging from pre-kindergarten to adult students, the school system was searching for highly sought-after safety supplies such as hand sanitizer, disinfectants, masks, and gloves and solicited a request for proposal. The challenge the public school system was facing was the lack of receiving physical samples or product specification sheets prior to a purchase during their initial solicitation process.
