Workhorse Group has been awarded a Sourcewell procurement contract for Class 4-8 chassis and cabs with related equipment, accessories, and services. This allows Workhorse to expand its reach to government, educational, and nonprofit sectors within all 50 states and Canada.

Sourcewell is a government agency created by the Minnesota legislature as a local unit of government and serves as a service cooperative. It is a self-sustaining government organization that partners with education, government, and nonprofits. Throughout North America, Sourcewell offers a cooperative purchasing program with over 400 awarded suppliers on contract, simplifying the buying process for its members and ensuring they receive the best value for their procurement needs.

Their contracts are competitively solicited to meet the public bidding requirements of participating entities. Workhorse was awarded a Sourcewell contract following a rigorous request for proposal process resulting in contracts that meet, or exceed, local procurement requirements.

“We are honored to be awarded by Sourcewell as an approved provider,” said Ryan Gaul, Workhorse president of commercial vehicles. “Sourcewell's streamlined purchasing process satisfies the legal requirement of the traditional bidding process, enabling our customers to quickly and efficiently acquire zero-emission vehicles that meet their operational requirements. Municipalities across the nation are leading the way in the transition to zero-emissions fleets and this contract will allow Workhorse to work with them efficiently to deploy the vehicles they need to meet their plans.”

As an awarded contract supplier, Workhorse has joined an elite group of vendors approved to serve Sourcewell’s network of members across the United States and Canada. Sourcewell participants now have streamlined access to Workhorse's portfolio of all-electric medium-duty vehicles, including the W56 step van, W750 step van, and W4 CC cab chassis.
