Time to Put on a Coat

What's blue and smells like red paint? Blue paint. 

All joking aside, two nationally-known vendors have added a splash of color to Sourcewell's diverse line of contract options and solutions through the Paint and Related Supplies category.

Contract Administrator Zach Heidmann said no matter the type of industry or organization, all Sourcewell members can likely agree that paint is critical in creating experiences. This category allows schools, nonprofits, and government offices easy access to the supplies and services they need through vendors they can trust.

“With PPG and Sherwin Williams, our members can utilize brands that supply the industry's most experienced experts in paint, painting supplies, equipment, and services,” Heidmann said. “These vendors are worldwide leaders in color creation, and developing environmentally-friendly and sustainable products, all while exceeding their customers' expectations.”

Following a competitive solicitation process, Sourcewell awarded these cooperative purchasing contracts:
