Educational & Institutional Cooperative Service (E&I)
A University Strategic Alliance Partner for Collaborative Buying Services
The Educational & Institutional
Cooperative Service (E&I), the only collaborative buying organization dedicated
to higher education, is our primary collaborative buying business partner.
In addition to the contract suppliers listed below, Purchasing Services is
partnering with E&I in the
Higher Education Collaborate Sourcing Project
with other major institutions across the country. Purchasing Services evaluates each
newly awarded E&I competitively bid contract for its competitiveness to existing
Penn pricing. Purchasing Services will adopt and implement each new E&I
competitively bid contract when the E&I contract supplier pricing as well as business
terms and conditions are favorable to the University.
