questions. (Examples of Purchasing Cooperatives include but are not limited to: 1GPA, Buyboard, Choice Partners, DIR, HGAC, TIPS, TXMAS, etc.) General Services Bid vs Catalog Discount Bid: Allen ISD offers two different bid opportunities outside of specific RFPs: General Services (this bid) and a Catalog Discount Bid.

If you consider your company to be more " product" related, please respond to the Catalog Discount Bid instead.
