Welcome to the PTAC Center

Welcome to the Northeastern Pennsylvania Alliance Procurement Technical Assistance Center

The Procurement Technical Assistance Center(PTAC) at the Northeastern Pennsylvania Alliance (NEPA) is the only PTAC covering Carbon, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Monroe, Pike, Schuylkill & Wayne counties in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The center has been in existence for twenty-five years. The PTAC serves as a liaison to help local companies, usually small businesses increase sales and growth for our regional economy. NEPA's PTAC staff provides marketing and technical assistance to qualified, competitive companies who wish to bid on government contracts and also works with government agencies to help locate suppliers in the region. The tools available from NEPA's PTAC can help companies market their products and qualify their business to be a leading contender in winning a contract with a state or federal agency.
