One eProcurement System for New Jersey Public Purchasing Entities

I'm excited to announce [that the next evolution of NJSTART will] make it easier for cities, counties, schools, and other local governments to use state contracts. [These improvements] will result in improved efficiencies for New Jersey local government and increased sales to [our State Cooperative Contract vendors]. NJSTART is the engine that runs New Jersey’s public purchasing needs!

Essex County has relied on NJSTART to efficiently access state contracts while upholding strict compliance standards. Our county hosts bi-annual procurement meetings, with the NJSTART team presenting in person to 40-50 participants. These sessions focus on system navigation, registration, and ensuring compliance with both county and state contract requirements. By showcasing NJSTART’s features, introducing system updates, and providing ongoing support, we equip users with the tools and knowledge needed to confidently adhere to procurement regulations.
