IPT Can Help Your
Agency To Do More, With Less
In today’s economic climate, with ever tightening budgets
and reduced staffing levels, IPT can help your agency to optimize the use of
its existing resources to increase efficiency and service levels, while lowering
costs and cultivating a satisfied vendor base.
IPT’s flexible business model provides agencies with a
solution they can turn to when budgets for funding their outsourced 3rd
party vendor or proprietary procurement solutions have been slashed or even eliminated
entirely. The IPT solution can be
deployed at no charge to the agency or its vendors.
It’s a win-win
situation—the agency gets best of breed process automation and
e-procurement technology, which increases efficiencies and lowers both product
and administrative costs, while suppliers benefit from free online access to all
bid information and documents.
IPT System Benefits
• No application/service cost for agencies
• Promotes shared resources
• Reduces administrative costs
• Improves process efficiency and automation
• Increases vendor competition to lower prices
• Provides free access to bid documents for suppliers
• Promotes transparency and fairness in the bidding process
Because IPT’s system is fully web-based, it’s easy for
agencies to join an existing IPT system or start a new one in their
region—there is no hardware or software to install or maintain.
With recent estimates of state and local budget cuts of 2.4%
in 2010, and projections of budget reductions of at least 2.5% in 2011 (the period
of January to March 2011 saw cuts of 3.8%!), more and more agencies are turning
to IPT as their purchasing solution. IPT
operates more than 20 e-procurement systems across the U.S., serving over 500
agencies and 4,000 buyers with hundreds of thousands of vendors to compete for
bids.
