Board authorizes agreements with 1GPA and CTPA to expand procurement options
Summary
Hale Center ISD authorized the business manager to enter interlocal procurement agreements with 1Governmental Procurement Alliance and Central Texas Purchasing Alliance under the Interlocal Cooperation Act.
The Hale Center ISD Board voted to authorize the business manager to enter into agreements with two cooperative purchasing organizations: 1Governmental Procurement Alliance (1GPA) and the Central Texas Purchasing Alliance (CTPA). Paul Chandler moved to authorize the contracts; Jack Needham and Heath Huffhines seconded the respective motions. Both motions passed unanimously, 7–0.
Board members cited the Interlocal Cooperation Act as the authority for the agreements; the motions permit the district to use cooperative purchasing contracts rather than conducting separate solicitations for some goods and services. The minutes do not list specific vendors, anticipated purchases, or estimated savings.
