Breakfast & Workshop
Procurement at the Precipice: Navigating Disruption in Higher Education for Faith-Based Institutions
Join us for breakfast and an extra chance to learn. Faith-based colleges and universities are navigating a complex landscape of financial constraints, demographic shifts, and political uncertainty. Procurement and finance leaders are being called upon to do more with less—streamlining operations, reducing costs, and supporting institutional missions under increasing pressure.
E&I Business Partners in Attendance
The E&I Portfolio
Your Partner in Procurement
E&I has been in the business of procurement since 1934. Founded by institutions of higher education and member-owned, we are the only non-profit cooperative focused solely on serving the education industry.
Solicit Contracts On Your Behalf | E&I solicits our contracts for our member organizations. Following a strict process, E&I can provide members with accessible, practical, and compliant contracts.
Streamlined Process | RFPs are expensive - in both time and money. Take advantage of our competitively solicited portfolio to reduce administrative workloads, forecast and plan long-term projects, and create revenue opportunities to meet institutional objectives.
Creates Cost Savings and Efficiencies | E&I can provide Strategic Spend Assessments (SSA's), at no cost, for our members. These assessments take an inside look at your organization's current and past spending and align it with opportunities to be more cost-effective in the future.
Need more information? Contact your E&I member representative to learn more about E&I's contract portfolio.
