PurchasingPoint Group Purchasing Volume by Members Increased Estimated 10 Percent in 2014

"Group purchasing is increasingly becoming a strategic decision for nonprofit management," said Irv Katz, president and CEO of PurchasingPoint®. "While nonprofit spending continues to increase, current activity is coming at a time when donors and grantees are reluctant to fund overhead. As a result, many nonprofits skimp on overhead spending altogether. Instead, nonprofit managers can begin to look closer at managing the largest component of overhead after personnel: purchasing the products and services needed to deliver on their mission."
