The City of Tamarac is soliciting proposals as the lead agency on behalf of the City of Tamarac, participating agencies of the Southeast Florida Governmental Purchasing Cooperative and OMNIA Partners, to obtain the services of a qualified firm to provide and deliver office supplies on a just-in-time basis.

The City of Tamarac, Florida, as the Principal Procurement Agency has partnered with OMNIA Partners to make the resultant contract (also known as the “Master Agreement” in materials distributed by OMNIA Partners) from this solicitation available to other public agencies nationally, including state and local governmental entities, public and private primary, secondary and higher education entities, non-profit entities, and agencies for the public benefit (“Public Agencies”), through OMNIA Partners’ cooperative purchasing program. The City of Tamarac is acting as the contracting agency for any other Public Agency that elects to utilize the resulting Master Agreement.  Use of the Master Agreement by any Public Agency is preceded by their registration with OMNIA Partners (a “Participating Public Agency”). 

The City anticipates entities in the Southeast Florida Governmental Purchasing Cooperative will access the resulting contract. For the past several years, approximately forty- five (45) government entities have participated in
Cooperative Purchasing in Southeast Florida. The Southeast Florida Governmental Purchasing Cooperative was formed in an effort to provide cost savings and cost avoidances to all entities by utilizing the buying power of combined requirements for common, basic items.  The government agencies participating in the particular procurement and their respective delivery locations are listed in the document.
