“What I found very useful is that SPS quickly analyzed our spend and within weeks matched us up with national/state contract they already had in place that saved us money immediately. Navigating the world of so many purchasing cooperatives today is confusing at best. SPS has the depth and breadth of knowledge and expertise to help school spend wisely. It is a great idea and a Wisconsin company!” Erin Green, Director of Business Services, Greendale School District “The Freedom Area School District has been very impressed with the service and opportunities provided to us by Shared Purchasing Solutions. The staff is excellent to work with helping obtain bids on many of the items we need. The program is easy to use and the results are great. In one year alone, we have saved over $5,000 and look to increase this in the future by changing to even more of the vendors offered.” Maggie Gagnon, Business Manager, Freedom Area School District
