How a group purchasing organization works

A group purchasing organization (GPO) harnesses the collective buying power of many smaller members to secure preferred pricing from top suppliers. By joining Elevate by Principal, your business—regardless of size—gains immediate access to the purchasing strength of a vast network. This strength in numbers approach unlocks pre-negotiated discounts with leading national suppliers that typically only larger enterprises enjoy.

Your business needs a group purchasing organization.

Partnering with a GPO delivers three primary benefits:

  • Save money. Reduce costs on everyday business expenses by an average of 10%—and often significantly more—through our pre-negotiated rates.
  • Save time. Skip the lengthy negotiations and request for proposals processes. Our vetted suppliers and pre-negotiated contracts mean you can start saving immediately.
  • Get instant access. Choose from over 1,000 supplier contracts that fit your business needs. Select your preferred vendors, order the way you always have, and begin saving right away.

You stay in control of your spend.

You choose which supplier agreements work best for you. There’s no obligation to participate in any program—use one, several, or all available supplier agreements based on your needs.

The process is minimally disruptive.

The professional team at Elevate by Principal is dedicated to helping your business find the most value out of the group purchasing organization while minimizing the disruption to your day-to-day operations. We’ll prioritize discounts with your current suppliers, and if you choose to transition to new suppliers, we’ll help make that as seamless as possible.

Elevate by Principal helps you find savings.

We’ve simplified the process of discovering and activating savings opportunities. Through secure connections with your accounting software or financial institution, we can quickly identify potential savings with minimal effort by you.

When you choose to connect, we carefully access only the specific data needed to identify savings opportunities. We then analyze your current supplier relationships to uncover available discounts.

Don’t want to connect your accounts? No problem. You have two easy alternatives:

  • Upload recent purchases: Share your purchase orders or receipts, and we’ll identify savings opportunities down to the supplier and stock keeping unit (SKU) level.
  • Enter supplier information: Simply provide your top suppliers’ names, product categories, and estimated annual spend to discover potential savings in minutes.
No upfront or ongoing costs to your business.
Elevate by Principal is free to join and free to use.

There are no membership fees or participation fees when you use the GPO through Elevate by Principal. There are no minimum orders to receive savings and no required change to your current ordering process. Our revenue model is straightforward—we receive administrative fees from suppliers only when you make purchases through the pre-negotiated contracts provided. This means you get access to significant savings with absolutely no upfront or ongoing costs to your business.
