What is a GPO?

---

A GPO is an organization that combines the purchasing power of multiple companies so everyone gets better pricing, stronger supplier access, and faster procurement. Members keep their own vendor relationships but gain leverage and visibility by purchasing as a collective.

For construction, a GPO reduces material costs, shortens bid cycles, and provides early access to national pricing for MEP/HVAC/IT equipment. For nonprofits, it stretches limited budgets through pre-negotiated pricing, vetted suppliers, and simple, mission-aligned procurement support.

No. You keep the suppliers you trust. A GPO strengthens those relationships by adding national contract pricing, incentives, and greater leverage—without forcing a switch.

iteriom is built specifically for commercial construction, commercial business, and mission-driven nonprofits. Our model focuses on early pricing visibility, supplier coordination, and practical support that aligns with how contractors and nonprofits actually work.
