11-AISDP 0003 - CTPA INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FORM.pdf

This is an Interlocal Agreement Form issued by the Amarillo Independent School District (AISD) in conjunction with the Central Texas Purchasing Alliance (CTPA) for the procurement of flashlights through the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) bidding process. The document establishes a framework allowing AISD to extend purchasing opportunities to other local government entities and political subdivisions through interlocal cooperation agreements authorized under Chapter 791 of the Texas Government Code. Vendors responding to this procurement are required to indicate their willingness to honor purchase orders from CTPA member districts at the submitted contract prices and terms, in addition to fulfilling orders from AISD itself. A complete roster of participating CTPA member districts is maintained at the CTPA website portal.

The agreement operates under optional interlocal purchasing provisions that allow successful vendors to extend their contract terms to an expanded base of political subdivisions beyond the primary procuring agency. Vendors must explicitly accept or decline participation in the CTPA purchasing consortium by completing the designated section of the form with company name, authorized representative signature, and date. This structure enables multiple jurisdictions to leverage TDCJ's procurement authority and competitive bidding process to obtain flashlights at negotiated rates without conducting separate solicitations.
