MACNY has managed an electricity aggregation currently comprised of as many as 50 companies for the last four years.  The opportunity is to take advantage of rates that are normally only available to the largest electricity consumers. We are currently working with Direct Energy to obtain good pricing for our members. We offer a variety of products including fixed rate and variable rate agreements to allow our members to manage energy costs in accordance with their risk and budgetary goals.

 

We continue to add companies to this consortium during the year, allowing additional companies to take advantage of the same benefits as current participants.  There is no cost to participate in this aggregation.  If you would like to request a quote, please complete this form.

MACNY Office Supply Consortium 

MACNY is pleased to announce the launch of a new and improved Office Supply Consortium.  We have made several improvements to the program to make savings broadly available to our members.  The most significant change is that we have selected a new provider, Hummel’s Office Plus. This respected regional supplier provided lower prices for an expanded market basket and is known for providing good service.

Another notable change is that we have eliminated the fee for participating in this opportunity. This consortium is now free for all MACNY members.  

There is an extensive market basket on which you will receive deep discounts. You will also receive large company discounts on other catalog items. That is it. As a member of MACNY, you just pay a lower price.

We hope that you will find the enhanced program to be useful for your business. To sign up for this consortium, please complete the interest form on our web site. To learn about pricing and about doing business with Hummels, please call Tim Hall at 315.432.9000 (tim@hummelsop.com)

 

 

MACNY is currently renewing our Industrial Supply program. The purpose of this consortium is to make low prices for MRO items available to our members; these prices are normally only available to large companies.

 

This consortium includes MRO items like cutting tools, lubricants, hand tools, abrasives, material handling equipment, sealants, and shop supplies.

 

 

 

Crouse Hospital's EAP program, HelpPeople, has offered MACNY members a special rate for it services for the last two years. HelpPeople provides MACNY members the same rates that are normally only available to it largest customers.  EAP programs provide an excellent return on investment for companies that have the program available.

MACNY is pleased to announce its new Equipment Maintenance Consortium. This is an opportunity for companies to save 10-20% on electronic equipment maintenance agreements.

 

Through the program, you replace your current maintenance agreements with a risk management/insurance product from our consortium providers. The premiums for this product will be lower than your current costs. When your equipment needs either repair or preventative maintenance, you call your local vendor to service the equipment on your schedule, but the bill is paid for by our provider. You save the administrative time and costs of billing and maintaining contracts.

 

This program may be particularly helpful to a company that has maintenance contracts on several machines. For example, do you have a maintenance contract on a fax machine, a computer server, and a time clock? Or do you have maintenance agreements on a photo copy machine, a printer,

and a card access system for your store room? Or perhaps you have medical equipment like an

ultrasound, laboratory or radiological equipment. The program may be helpful for replacing these agreements with the potential for significant savings.

 

Our provider for this program is The REMI Group. The contact at the REMI Group is Michael Van Derveer, Business Development Manager. (704.602.0878, MVanDerveer@theremigroup.com)
