LIVE WEBINAR:  CoOps Convos: Asking the Tough Questions in Cooperative Purchasing

 

Every day more and more cooperative purchasing organizations "pop-up." Leaving buyers confused about what their best option is. Buyers want to hear first-hand from their peers and be able to ask the tough questions about coops and vendors. 

In this session, we will discuss tough questions like, 

  • "What are we missing by not using coop contracts?" 
  • "How do I know I'm getting the best deal?," 
  • "What about my Ts &Cs?"  
  • "Can I or should I negotiate pricing,?"
and include varied real-life examples from Gerry's decades of procurement experience including being a lead agency for multiple cooperative contracts and Jennifer's previous time working directly for a coop and vendor. This interactive session will encourage the audience to provide examples of their experiences during each topic.  

 

Presenters:  Gerald Plummer, Division Manager, Purchasing, Los Angeles County & Jennifer Sulentic, Chief Procurement Ally, CompareCoops
