Welcome to the COSTARS Members Area COSTARS is a new approach to the Cooperative Purchasing Program. COSTARS encourages the formulation of an interactive partnership between Local Public Procurement Units and the Commonwealth. There are several thousand Local Public Procurement Units taking advantage of existing Commonwealth contracts. Our goal is to provide better contracts with excellent pricing, while increasing participation of eligible participants.

The COSTARS Program is intended for the exclusive use of member organizations. Individuals associated with the member organization are prohibited from using the contracts for personal purchases. Failure to abide by this may result in member organization being removed from the COSTARS Program and appropriate legal action being taken against the individual(s) who improperly used the COSTARS contract.
