How Sourcewell Cooperative Purchasing Works in Michigan

Sourcewell is a government agency established under Minnesota statute that competitively bids contracts on behalf of participating member agencies nationwide. Because Sourcewell conducts the competitive bidding process, member agencies can purchase directly from awarded vendors without running their own RFP — the competitive requirement has already been satisfied.

For Michigan government entities, schools, and non-profits, this is authorized under MCL 124.505, which specifically permits cooperative purchasing with other governmental units. Most Michigan agencies can approve a Sourcewell purchase through a standard board or council resolution referencing the cooperative contract.

The process works in four easy steps:

Step 1:

Verify or establish membership Most Michigan government entities, K-12 school districts, universities, and 501(c)(3) non-profits already qualify. Check existing membership at sourcewell-mn.gov/lookup. If not yet a member, registration is free and takes approximately five minutes at sourcewell-mn.gov/register.

Step 2:

Identify your contract Wolverine Power Systems holds three active Sourcewell contracts covering Generac industrial generators, mobile power equipment, and grounds maintenance equipment. We'll help you confirm which contract applies to your project and equipment needs.

Step 3:

Contact Wolverine Power Systems Call us at 800-485-8068 or submit the form on this page. We handle all Sourcewell paperwork and compliance documentation on your behalf. You won't need to navigate the contract details alone.

Step 4:

Purchase, delivery, and installation Once your purchase order is issued, we coordinate delivery and installation with our Michigan-based technicians. Typical timeline from first contact to signed contract: 2–4 weeks. Delivery and installation: 4–8 weeks depending on generator size and site preparation requirements.

The Wolverine Power Systems Sourcewell Advantage

Sourcewell contracts are available through multiple vendors. Here's what purchasing through Wolverine Power Systems specifically means for your Michigan agency.

Michigan-Based. Michigan-Focused.

We are not a national distributor routing your order through a call center. Wolverine Power Systems operates four service locations across Michigan — Zeeland, Wixom, Gaylord, and Marquette — staffed by Michigan-based technicians who know your region, your utilities, and your climate. When your generator needs service after the purchase, you're calling a local team, not an 800 number that dispatches from out of state.

We Handle the Paperwork

Navigating a cooperative contract for the first time involves documentation your purchasing department may not have seen before. We manage the Sourcewell compliance paperwork on your behalf, help your team prepare the board or council resolution, and ensure your purchase order references the correct contract number. Our goal is to make your first Sourcewell purchase as straightforward as a direct purchase — without the six-month RFP process.

Complete Lifecycle Support

A generator is a 20-year asset. Purchasing through Sourcewell handles the procurement; what happens over the next two decades is equally important. Wolverine Power Systems provides NFPA 110-compliant preventive maintenance programs, load bank testing, fuel quality management, parts, and 24/7 emergency service across all 83 Michigan counties — for all major generator brands, not only Generac equipment. Your Sourcewell purchase comes with a service partner, not just a transaction.

No Minimum Purchase. No Pressure.

Sourcewell contracts carry no minimum purchase requirement, and there is no obligation to purchase simply because your organization registers or requests a quote. Whether your project is a single 20 kW unit for a township hall or a 2 MW system for a regional hospital, the same contract access applies. We provide transparent quotes so your team can evaluate options and make decisions on your timeline.

Direct Access to Michigan's Generac Industrial Energy Distributor

Wolverine Power Systems is Michigan's Premier Generac Industrial Energy Distributor — the only authorized distributor of Generac Industrial Energy products in the state. Purchasing through our Sourcewell contracts gives your agency direct access to the complete Generac Industrial product line, factory-trained technicians, and engineering support for sizing and system design. There is no intermediary between your agency and the manufacturer's expertise.

Frequently Asked Sourcewell Questions

All Michigan government entities are eligible, including state agencies, county governments, city and township governments, villages, special districts, water and wastewater authorities, emergency services, libraries, and public transit agencies. Educational institutions including K-12 school districts, intermediate school districts, community colleges, and universities also qualify. Non-profit organizations with 501(c)(3) status are eligible as well. There are no minimum purchase requirements and no membership fees. If you're uncertain whether your organization qualifies, membership can be verified at sourcewell-mn.gov/lookup.

Yes. Michigan law — specifically MCL 124.505 — authorizes governmental units to participate in cooperative purchasing agreements with other governmental units. Because Sourcewell conducts a formal competitive bid process on behalf of its member agencies, Michigan agencies that purchase through an active Sourcewell contract satisfy their competitive procurement obligations. Most agencies approve Sourcewell purchases through a standard board or council resolution that references the cooperative contract number. We can provide documentation to support your board approval process if needed.

Savings vary depending on project size, equipment type, and what pricing your organization would otherwise negotiate independently. Sourcewell's contracts are competitively bid on behalf of more than 50,000 member agencies, which creates purchasing leverage that individual agencies typically cannot replicate on their own. Beyond pricing, many agencies find the time savings equally significant — replacing a 6–12 month RFP process with a 2–4 week procurement timeline reduces staff time, legal review costs, and project delays. Contact us at 800-485-8068 for a quote on your specific project and equipment needs.

Sourcewell provides three primary benefits to Michigan government agencies, schools, and non-profits. First, it eliminates the time and administrative burden of a standalone RFP process — the competitive bidding has already been conducted by Sourcewell, so agencies can move directly to purchase. Second, it provides access to pre-negotiated pricing on Generac generators, mobile power equipment, transfer switches, battery energy storage systems, and related equipment. Third, it simplifies compliance — the contract structure is specifically designed to satisfy cooperative purchasing statutes, reducing legal review requirements. Membership is free with no minimum purchase obligations.

Membership is free and open to eligible government entities, educational institutions, and non-profits. To register, visit sourcewell-mn.gov/register and complete the online application. The process typically takes five minutes. Once registered, your organization has immediate access to all active Sourcewell contracts — no waiting period. If you're not sure whether your organization is already a member, check at sourcewell-mn.gov/lookup using your organization name or EIN. Many Michigan agencies are already registered and don't realize it.

You can check here.

Yes. Wolverine Power Systems serves all 83 Michigan counties through four strategically located service centers in Zeeland (West Michigan), Wixom (Southeast Michigan), Gaylord (Northern Michigan), and Marquette (Upper Peninsula). Sourcewell contract holders receive the same installation, preventive maintenance, and 24/7 emergency service as our direct customers — there is no difference in service level or response capability based on how the equipment was purchased. We service all major generator brands, not only equipment purchased through us or through Sourcewell contracts.

Contract #092222-GNR covers industrial power generation equipment including generators, automatic transfer switches, and power distribution equipment.
