DSC Central Bidding/Purchasing Service
DSC’s Central Bidding/Purchasing Service helps school districts meet their purchasing needs in a cost effective manner by researching vendors, managing specifications, and awarding bids for district supplies and services. The primary focus of central bidding is to enable participating districts, large and small, to secure pricing and advantages of large volume purchasing through aggregated bidding. DSC provides leadership and coordination throughout the bidding process. This service saves districts money and time by developing cooperative bids for various goods and services based upon requests from the participating districts. As a result, cooperative bidding could provide a greater number of competitive bids solicited and received resulting in better prices for higher quality items.
The Data Service Center has partnered with eSchoolMall, a leading provider of online procurement solutions for schools, to automate the purchasing and bidding process. DSC uses easyBid™ and easyPurchase™ to manage the bidding and purchasing process. Both easyBid™ and easyPurchase™ offer practical, user-friendly, web-based tools that enable our clients to participate in cooperative bidding and purchasing, thereby taking advantage of economy of scale.
