Welcome to the 2026-27 School Year!


As a new school year begins, stretching every budget dollar is top of mind.


Created by Indiana's eight Educational Service Centers (ESCs) for the school districts we serve, ECPA leverages statewide buying power to secure pre-bid, competitive pricing on essential supplies. We work to cut the administrative hassle and maximizing value for all Indiana school districts.

Your local ECPA reps understand the specific needs of Indiana schools. We handle the heavy lifting on compliance and pricing. Unlike national purchasing portals where fees leave the state, ECPA funnels admin fees directly back to your local ESC to fund programs and services right here in your community.


Using ECPA contracts streamlines procurement, satisfies Indiana bidding requirements, and delivers volume pricing regardless of district size.


Reach out to your local rep and let ECPA work for your district!


Sincerely,

Your ECPA team
