Hello J. Edward,
We received your application and have assigned you member # 102062. We are in the process

To view all of our competitively bid contracts, follow this link - they appear in alphabetical
groupings. Click on the awarded vendor logo to take you to the individual contract landing
page. You, the NJPA member, interact directly with the awarded vendor to facilitate a
purchase. On the left hand side of that page you will find contact information for the
respondents dedicated employee, and the assigned NJPA contract manager - both are great
resources to get information and pricing for the contract. The respondent (in most cases a
manufacturer) is your best resource, as they work only with their products. The NJPA dedicated
contract manager is available to verify pricing, answer contract specific questions, etc. The
respondent is a great starting point to determine distribution of their products, find a local dealer
in your area, or answer questions about their product line as it relates to the contract they were
awarded by NJPA. All the contract documentation you need to build your justification file is
available on the dedicated landing page - click on the pricing tab to learn more about the
contract pricing structure - PRICING is only available from the two individuals listed on each
page - the respondent or the NJPA contract manager, they are happy to provide it, but because
