Procurement vehicles, registrations, and how to buy.
A.I.R. is positioned to support direct purchases, piggyback procurement under existing statewide agreements, and competitive bid responses across federal and state opportunities.
Established for federal and state procurement.
Buy under an existing vehicle. Skip the solicitation.
A.I.R. holds and operates under multiple statewide umbrella agreements, multi-year term contracts, and cooperative purchasing vehicles spanning ballistic protection, ammunition, and tactical-equipment categories. Eligible agencies — including in-state agencies, neighboring jurisdictions, and qualifying cooperative members — can frequently procure directly under these vehicles without issuing a new solicitation.
Specific vehicle identifiers, contract numbers, and eligibility rules are confirmed agency-by-agency. Use the inquiry form to tell us your jurisdiction and scope, and A.I.R. will route you to the right vehicle.
- Whether your agency is eligible to piggyback under an existing A.I.R. vehicle
- Which product categories and scopes are covered under each available vehicle
- Pricing, lead time, and delivery terms specific to your jurisdiction
- Required documentation and any cooperative-membership prerequisites
- Alternative paths if piggyback is not the most efficient route for your buy
Three paths to procurement.
Direct PO
Issue a purchase order directly to A.I.R. for off-contract requirements. Quotes returned within 48 hours.
Piggyback Procurement
Buy under an existing statewide or cooperative vehicle held by A.I.R., where your jurisdiction permits piggyback awards. Inquire for vehicle availability.
Competitive Bid
Issue an RFP, RFQ, or IFB. A.I.R. handles full proposal compliance, technical response, and pricing.
Ask about vehicles, agreements, and contracts available for piggyback.
Tell us your jurisdiction and what you’re looking to procure. A.I.R. will confirm which active vehicles your agency is eligible to buy under, share scope and pricing, and recommend the cleanest procurement path.
