Lehigh
Valley Association of Independent Colleges (LVAIC) was incorporated
in 1969 as a group of six independent higher education institutions
with the mission to expand educational opportunities for students,
provide professional development for faculty and staff, and engender
greater economy and efficiency of operation among its member institutions.
The
estimated $900 million contributed by the LVAIC member institutions
has a significant impact on the economy of the Lehigh Valley region
and local communities in which they reside. The Business Services
component of LVAIC has been profiled as a national model of procurement
efficiency with a business portfolio of over $60 million in group
purchasing of products and services.
The
successful collaborative purchasing programs have generated substantial
cost avoidance savings for the participating institutions, enabling
smaller institutions to realize better pricing and access to higher
quality products and services.
