Bonfire and CoProcure Announce Partnership to Offer the Industry’s Most Comprehensive Collection of Active Cooperative Contracts and Solicitations

A new Bonfire search integration aims to help government procurement teams discover piggyback contract opportunities to save time and money.

Bonfire Interactive Ltd. (“Bonfire”), a business unit of GTY Technology Holdings Inc. and a leader in strategic sourcing and eProcurement software, today announced the availability of an integration with CoProcure, a free marketplace of cooperative contracts that empowers public servants to discover and use over 50,000 active cooperative contracts from national, state, and local sources.

“CoProcure has assembled an enormous database of public sector cooperative contracts to help government procurement teams take advantage of pre-negotiated arrangements and rates,” said Omar Salaymeh, CEO of Bonfire. “Through this new integration, Bonfire users will have access to one of the industry’s most comprehensive collections of active cooperative contracts right alongside Bonfire’s own database of active and historical solicitations. Together, we’re able to provide one of the industry’s most comprehensive repositories of pre-negotiated contracts and trending solicitations to help agencies source more efficiently and cost effectively.”

The integration works through the Community Projects module in Bonfire, which itself contains over 34,000 open and historical solicitations, including all public project documents from over 600 public sector agencies actively using the Bonfire eProcurement solution to manage their entire sourcing process. Bonfire users frequently look there for an existing template or contract to use as a starting point rather than crafting a solicitation from scratch when appropriate. Suitable cooperative contract opportunities in the CoProcure database will now also be accessible there for all users on the Bonfire platform.

“This announcement is an important milestone for CoProcure,” says CoProcure co-founder and CEO, Mariel Reed. “It’s crazy that we have so much access to free technology for our personal shopping decisions, but not our public ones. By building CoProcure, and now by making CoProcure accessible to more procurement teams through our partnership with Bonfire, we can together help empower procurement professionals to make better, faster purchasing decisions on behalf of their communities.”

Bonfire customers can use the CoProcure integration beginning today. Bonfire clients attending NIGP Forum in Boston can drop by the Bonfire booth on August 21 and 22 for a live demonstration.
