International Truck announced Wednesday it has been awarded a contract by the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) to expand sales opportunities for new International Class 6, 7, and 8 chassis to more than 50,000 NJPA members throughout the United States and Canada.
NJPA is a governmental unit that establishes alliances between buyers and suppliers for use by education, government and non-profits. Through NJPA, these entities have access to pre-negotiated pricing and terms streamlining the purchasing process saving cost and time, International says.
“Through this program, municipalities and government agencies in search of solutions to meet their business needs can order International trucks without having to spend time and money to go through a bid process,” says Jeff Sass, senior vice president, Sales and Marketing at Navistar. “This joint enterprise with NJPA represents an exceptional opportunity for these customers to purchase our lineup of severe- and medium-duty trucks, including International’s flagship HX Series and the reliable and versatile WorkStar and DuraStar models.”
International says NJPA members can take advantage of this program and shop for Class 6, 7, and 8 trucks at more than 700 International Dealer locations in the U.S. providing sales, parts and service. The International Truck contract with NJPA is in effect until Nov. 15, 2020.
International is the third OEM this year to announce such a contract, following Volvo in January and Kenworth earlier this month. Autocar also earned a NJPA contact in December.
