As a government entity, cost containment, product reliability and contract compliance are critical factors in every business decision. Sharp offers a wide array of secure technology for state, county and local government offices that can help streamline processes and make the most of your budget.
Save time and money and streamline the bidding process by leveraging the volume buying power of cooperative contracts. Sharp’s Government and Educational Cooperative Contracts provide award-winning technology at negotiated pricing to public and private educational institutions, city, state, and county governments and non-profit organizations.
Cooperative contracts are competitively bid, evaluated and awarded on behalf of the cooperative members. Members can overcome purchasing challenges, including budget constraints and staff reductions, and purchase Sharp products and services at negotiated pricing and terms through a legally vetted contract without the time and work effort associated with going out to bid.
Contact SBS of Bakersfield and we can provide you with a list of cooperative contracts which Sharp has been awarded and available to you to leverage via our Bakersfield offices. These contracts include products designed to help your organization streamline document processing and enhance collaboration in the office with Sharp’s innovative business products. Use of these contracts may also help your organization control expenses while meeting security, accessibility, environmental and regulatory requirements.
Publicly funded organizations such as Government, Education and Non-Profits source goods and services on a regular basis. Established cooperative contracts provide organizations an alternative to the RFP Process, which can be painful, costly and lengthy.
