Outdoor-Fit: Sourcewell Approved Procurement
Streamlined public purchasing for agencies across North America
Regardless of the agency, purchasing quality, durable outdoor fitness equipment often faces one major obstacle: procurement. Traditional bidding processes can take a long time, which strains resources and delays equipment benefits. Here at Outdoor-Fit, we help eliminate these barriers as a Sourcewell and Canoe-approved supplier, allowing agencies across the US and Canada to purchase our outdoor fitness equipment without issuing a traditional RFP.
With our newly renewed Sourcewell Cooperative purchasing contract, municipalities, schools, universities, correctional facilities, military facilities, and more can access our heavy-duty outdoor fitness equipment through a streamlined, fully compliant process that eliminates the need to conduct a public bid.
