Fulfill Bid Process Requirements

SmartCOP offers a simplified purchasing process through active cooperative purchasing agreements with trusted organizations, making it easier for government agencies to fulfill bid process requirements.

A government purchasing agreement, also known as a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement, allows public agencies to use the competitive procurement process already completed by another agency.

This means you can leverage an established agreement won by SmartCOP to quickly and efficiently purchase our software without the need to conduct your own RFP process since that requirement has already been satisfied.

These agreements meet state and local procurement laws, ensuring compliance while saving time and administrative costs.

By using cooperative procurement, your agency benefits from lower pricesreduced paperwork, and access to SmartCOP’s world-class public safety software.

These are the current SmartCOP Cooperative Purchasing Agreements, but be sure to ask your Sales Representative about using this purchasing method, as we’re always adding to this list.

  • Sourcewell – A variety of competitively solicited cooperative contracts ready for use.
  • NASPO – A cooperative purchasing program facilitating public procurement solicitations and agreements using a lead-state model.
  • Kansas State Contract – Any agency in Kansas can purchase directly from the state contract.

Subscription Purchasing Option

SmartCOP offers a subscription purchasing option that provides agencies with a cost-effective way to acquire our advanced public safety software.

This flexible model significantly reduces the upfront cost of procurement, allowing agencies to pay for the system on a quarterly or annual basis.

Similar to a cell phone service plan, subscription purchasing ensures predictable payments while delivering full access to our cutting-edge features and updates.

This approach makes it easier for agencies to budget and implement world-class public safety solutions without the burden of large initial expenses.

Standard Purchasing Option

Agencies looking to purchase public safety software can choose SmartCOP’s standard upfront purchase option with flexible, negotiated pricing.

This traditional procurement method provides full access to our industry-leading software, ensuring your agency has the tools it needs to operate efficiently.

To maintain optimal performance and continuous support, an active annual maintenance agreement is required, giving your team ongoing access to updates and expert assistance.

Financing & Leasing

For agencies facing funding challenges, SmartCOP offers flexible financing options through trusted partnerships with finance companies specializing in public safety software solutions.

Financing or leasing provides an affordable pathway to procure a complete SmartCOP system with manageable monthly payments, typically spread over 36 to 48 months.

This approach ensures agencies can access world-class software without delaying critical upgrades or straining their budgets.
