Service Details

Home Depot representatives walk webinar participants through the sign-up process and data review for the Home Depot Government Solutions program offered through GMA.

Benefits

Using GMA’s Home Depot Government Solutions program is not only good for your city’s bottom line, it also provides you specialized services—from dedicated Home Depot support to tax exemptions—that make your building repair and implementation needs much easier to solve.

Because this program is part of US Communities (contract numbers #16154 and #170009), you may purchase directly and immediately from Home Depot without worrying about RFPs, competitive requirements or other procurement hurdles.

Save Money

In addition to Home Depot’s already competitively low prices, GMA’s Home Depot Government Solutions program helps you save money through:

  • Special Discounts: If you typically go to Home Depot and buy products off the shelf, you’re paying too much. Home Depot offers you special discounts when you buy through GMA (such as 20% off paints, stains and primers).
  • Volume Pricing: For orders over $1,000, you receive special volume pricing that helps you reduce costs on major purchases.
  • Annual Rebate: Cities receive an annual rebate of 3 percent—with no minimum spending threshold.

Did you know that Home Depot sells items—like telephone poles—that are not available at retail stores but are easily purchased online through GMA’s Home Depot government portal?

Save Time

GMA’s Home Depot Government Solutions program also helps you save time by:

  • Shipping items directly to you. Instead of sending city staff to pick up items at a nearby store, Home Depot ships items direct to city hall or another location you desire.
  • Providing an easy way to purchase items and manage your account online. It's easy to purchase items online. GMA gives you access to a customer-friendly website that's different from HomeDepot.com and specifically designed for government services. Plus, you can see the history of your purchases and export data to your accounting software.
  • Receiving a dedicated support person assigned to your account. Each city receives an assigned Home Depot support team member. These team members are trained to help cities and they understand your needs.
  • Simplifying your tax preparation. All your Home Depot-related information is easily accessible and reviewable when doing taxes. Our online portal provides one-step tax exemption registration with email renewal reminders.

Additional Benefits

  • Setting up different accounts for different city departments. Each department at your city can set up an account with different forms of purchasing and tracking that are tailored to that department.
  • Using Home Depot for renovation and installation projects. Beyond buying items, you can use GMA’s Home Depot Government Solutions Program for professional renovation and installation. Dedicated contractors with government experience can help you with projects such as roofing or window installation.
  • Augmenting your emergency response planning. If a disaster strikes, Home Depot is ready to help your city by supporting your crisis command center with whatever you need.
  • Helping your city become more eco-friendly and sustainable. Home Depot’s eco-friendly products can assist with your efforts to become more energy efficient and sustainable.
