The BOC determined that it would be the best interest of the borough to purchase office supplies through Office Basics, Incorporated of Boothwyn, PA through the Camden County Cooperative Pricing System for the next two years at 74% off the catalogue prices specifiedin the bid agreement. Office Basics was awarded the contract following a detailed bid process with Camden County.
