NJPA is a public agency that creates national cooperative contract purchasing solutions for its members in the U.S. and Canada. NJPA contracts are solicited and competitively awarded on behalf of NJPA current and potential government and education member agencies.

By consolidating individuals into a single, shared bid, the cooperative contract offers the opportunity to save for NJPA members. The process allows members to streamline their truck bidding process and take advantage of NJPA’s selection criteria and pricing.

“Volvo Trucks is pleased to offer our full range of heavy-duty trucks through the NJPA,” said Jeff Lester, senior vice president of sales for Volvo Trucks North America. “Member agencies can specify the Volvo model that best fits their needs by utilizing Volvo’s complete specification offering.”

All truck chassis included in NJPA’s contract with Volvo include the Volvo Trucks suite of uptime services, including real-time vehicle status updates, case management, and technical support. Member agencies are also able to work with and take delivery through a local Volvo Trucks dealer.

The Volvo Trucks contract (081716-VCE) is effective now and available to North American NJPA members. To learn more about the Volvo models available under the NJPA contract contact your nearest Volvo Trucks dealer.
