As we enter the second half of the year, many organizations are considering how to stretch their budget and wisely spend funds allocated for the year. Bulk supplies and major equipment purchases are often a big part of those decisions, especially with the supply chain challenges we all face. Perhaps it's a good time to evaluate your buying strategy and sources.
Here are some key considerations for tribal governments and enterprises when making purchasing decisions:
Price
Quality
Source credibility and reliability
Diversity buying goals
Tribal vendor preference
Goals to strengthen tribal economies and keep money circulating within Indian Country
Responsiveness of suppliers to tribal needs
Supplier knowledge of tribal government procurement practices and constraints
We can help you plan for your supply needs as you go about spending your 2022 budget and also planning your 2023 budget. We can also relieve your storage concerns with scheduled deliveries based on your needs. As a tribally-owned enterprise, we can help work towards your procurement goals with an understanding of the unique limitations you may face due to procurement policies and budgets. We understand that tribes and tribal enterprises usually strive to use Native vendors when possible, which we love and appreciate!
