Baystone’s Multiple Award Program, or MAP, is an additional resource for our customers, and represents our partnerships with buying cooperatives administered by the federal government, state government agencies, and other nonprofit entities.
Buying cooperatives provide an alternative to the open bid solicitation typically required to buy or finance equipment. Through a submission and selection process, the cooperative pre-approves certain vendors and lenders. This gives municipalities the benefit of purchasing equipment and services at competitive, pre-arranged prices, without the time, effort, and expense of the traditional solicitation process.
Whether you are a vendor using a cooperative to sell your equipment and need to recommend a reliable lender, or a municipality that needs to buy and finance essential equipment, Baystone is here to help. Through our association with numerous cooperatives, we can provide our customers with an additional funding resource. The cooperatives we work with include:
