Why GPS

A transparent, full-line GPO.

Best-in-class pricing is only half the equation. Membership pairs national contract pricing with the service and visibility most GPOs won't give you.

Total Transparency

No markups, no re-selling. Members see the actual negotiated pricing and terms on every contract — and can verify it themselves.

How it works

No Forced Utilization

Choose only the contracts that make sense for your business. Keep the supplier relationships you value — no minimums, no obligations.

What Is a GPO?

Group purchasing, summed up in four words: it saves you money.

A group purchasing organization (GPO) leverages the purchasing power of a group of businesses to obtain discounted pricing from suppliers based on collective buying power. Pricing is a volume game — every company knows that spending more with a supplier earns a lower price. GPS adds up our members' total spend to get you the best price available, with no time wasted negotiating.

Members join free, choose which negotiated contracts they want to access from the portfolio, and begin purchasing from the suppliers they've selected. Consolidating purchasing through a GPO also saves time and reduces staffing overhead — suppliers offer preferred pricing, terms, and service standards because a single, very large customer costs less to serve.

The GPS Difference

Often the biggest value isn't replacing suppliers — it's resetting the rules.

Our contracts change the terms of engagement so savings show up on every order, in real time.

  • Suppliers attest to most-favored-nation pricing on contracted items
  • Pricing tiers based on aggregated national volume — not your individual spend
  • Contracts pre-competed through formal RFPs and member-led sourcing
  • Free market-basket analysis compares your current pricing before you commit

Member Feedback

Procurement teams that stopped overpaying.

"We assumed our regional volume already got us the best price on MRO. The market-basket analysis proved otherwise — the savings were on the very first order."
Procurement Director

"No forced utilization was the deciding factor. We kept the vendors we love and moved the categories where we were getting beat up. Zero downside."
VP of Operations

"Across our communities, unit-turn costs dropped noticeably — appliances, paint, flooring, all of it. One membership, every property benefits."

FAQ

Questions? Answered.

What is a GPO?
A group purchasing organization (GPO) leverages the combined purchasing power of many businesses to obtain discounted pricing and preferred terms from suppliers. By buying as one very large customer, members access pricing normally reserved for the biggest national enterprises — plus they save the time and overhead of negotiating category by category.
Does membership cost anything?
No. GPS membership is free. Suppliers fund the program through administrative fees on contracted purchases, so members simply enjoy better pricing at no cost — with no hidden markups added on top.
Am I required to use specific suppliers or spend a minimum?
No. There is no obligation to use any particular supplier, and most programs carry no minimum spend. You choose the contracts that fit your business and keep every other relationship exactly as it is.
Can I cancel my membership?
Yes — you're free to cancel at any time. You would simply lose access to the pre-negotiated discounts and terms.
What are the membership requirements?
Just one: confidentiality. Our supplier pricing took years to build, so members agree not to share contract pricing outside their organization or use it to shop against our suppliers. That's it.
Does GPS replace our procurement team?
No — we make them faster. GPS handles the sourcing, RFPs, and negotiation for indirect categories so your buyers can focus on the strategic purchases that give your company its competitive edge.
Are there different types of GPOs?
If you've seen one GPO, you've really only seen one GPO — they vary greatly in size, ownership, and the services they offer. Some serve only nonprofits, some focus on narrow product categories, some are owned by the facilities they serve. GPS is a transparent, full-line GPO: our portfolio spans every major indirect category, and our programs are built around the industries we know best. Read the full guide →
Do I have to switch suppliers to save?
Often, no. If a supplier you already use is in our contract portfolio, your locations can frequently be attached to the existing agreement — gaining contract pricing, audit rights, and price-increase protections without changing a thing about how you buy. Often the biggest value isn't replacing suppliers — it's resetting the rules of engagement.
