NPPGov offers the most extensive selection of public safety agreements for products and services to save departments time and money while getting the products they need. In addition to publicly solicited agreements, NPPGov also offers department members a discount program for individual members from AT&T, FirstNet, Hewlett-Packard, PODS, and more. NPPGov owns all their own agreements, and their process is completely RFP-driven, versus price negotiated.
