To simplify academic purchasing and streamline collaboration, Share-A-Cart today introduced Share-A-Cart for Organizations. Built to address common procurement challenges faced by school districts and colleges, the platform makes it easier to manage workflows efficiently, freeing up valuable staff time.

Share-A-Cart for Organizations enables district leaders to create, organize, and submit carts for approval, while administrators can review requests, approve or reject items, and mark purchases as complete. By keeping all requests in one platform, districts can avoid duplicate orders, stay within budget, and always prioritize essential resources.

“Districts are under enormous pressure to do more with fewer resources,” said Ed Kozek, CEO of Share-A-Cart. “Share-A-Cart for Organizations was built to take the frustration out of procurement, giving leaders a streamlined way to manage budgets and focus their attention back on supporting staff and students.”

The new platform was designed with superintendents, procurement officers, and finance leaders in mind. Key features of Share-A-Cart for Organizations include:

• Organization tools to make carts easy to find, track, and report on;
• Clear approval workflows to facilitate timely reviews;
• Real-time budget visibility to help users monitor spending;
• Duplicate order prevention to keep purchasing streamlined and cost-efficient; 
• Vendor white-listing to ensure purchases are only made through approved vendors; and
• Audit-ready records that simplify compliance and accountability.

“By making procurement straightforward and transparent, Share-A-Cart for Organizations saves educators time and reduces their stress so they can focus on students’ learning experiences,” said Ed Kozek, CEO of Share-A-Cart.

Share-A-Cart for Organizations also offers advanced features such as cart tagging, saving and renaming options, and detailed approval histories. These features ensure every purchase is accounted for, provide actionable insights for decision-making, and support finance teams in planning budgets effectively.
