Purchase Cooperatives
Loyola Purchasing Cooperatives Program
Purchasing Cooperatives are independent organizations which represent groups of universities and coordinate multi-university contracts with vendors realizing substantial discounts due to the volume being negotiated.
Loyola University Chicago belongs to two different Purchasing Cooperatives:
1. Educational & Institutional Cooperative

2. Jesuit University Purchasing Cooperative
ePlus Technology, Inc. and the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities (AJCU-- a national voluntary service organization whose mission is to serve its 28 member institutions) have created a buying consortium for IT purchases. ePlus offers negotiated pricing based on the combined spend of all participating AJCU member institutions through OneSource IT. The free portal for ePlus customers simplifies the procurement process and enables organizations to reduce the overall cost of acquiring IT products and services.
