ABOUT KY AEPA

Strengthening Kentucky's Purchasing Power

Since 2001, we've served as the bridge between national volume pricing and the local needs of Kentucky public agencies, governments, and nonprofits.

HOW IT WORKS

Purchasing made easy — here's how

No complicated process. No lengthy bid cycles. Just four simple steps to start saving your organization time and money.

01 | Step One

Find a contract

Browse our vendor directory by category. Every contract has already been competitively bid and approved — so the hard work is done before you arrive.

02 | Step Two

Confirm eligibility

K–12 districts, local governments, higher ed, and nonprofits are all welcome. Non-educational organizations complete a simple one-time participation agreement.

03 | Step three

Contact your Kentucky rep

Every vendor has a designated Kentucky contact. Reach out directly to get pricing, place an order, or ask questions — no middleman required.

04 | Step four

Purchase with confidence

Reference the AEPA contract number on your purchase order. You're covered — legally compliant, competitively priced, and audit-ready.

That's it. No local RFP. No bid committee. No waiting.
