AFFLINK, a global leader in supply chain management, has joined forces with the National Service Alliance (NSA) so its members can have greater access to the commercial marketplace

The U.S.-based NSA is a leading group purchasing organization for building service contractors and contract cleaners.

“AFFLINK and its members now have the opportunity to service members of NSA, providing benefits that allow them to be more competitive in the marketplace and increasing the members’ basket of offerings,” said Rob Dunn, director of the commercial segment at AFFLINK.

AFFLINK members will be able to take advantage of this new partnership starting sometime in 2017.

“Our partnership with AFFLINK will provide a tremendous benefit to our members’ purchasing power while streamlining our operations and reporting,” says Michael Conrad, president of NSA. “This new endeavor will allow us to enjoy contractually protected pricing on a wide variety of equipment and services.”

The NSA now represents more than US$2.2 billion in member revenues.
