CobbleStone® Announces New TXShare Cooperative Purchasing Agreement Now Available on Civic Marketplace

Public agencies can now access Cobblestone Software's contract lifecycle management platform through a TXShare cooperative purchasing agreement, with no new RFP required.

PRINCETON, N.J., Aug. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CobbleStone Software, a recognized leader in contract lifecycle management (CLM) and contract artificial intelligence, is pleased to announce that its cooperative purchasing contract, awarded through TXShare, is now accessible through Civic Marketplace. By listing on Civic Marketplace, CobbleStone's TXShare contract extends far beyond its existing base, giving local governments, public schools, and non-profit organizations nationwide a streamlined way to search, compare, and procure CobbleStone's services directly.

As an awarded vendor under the TXShare cooperative program - administered by the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) - CobbleStone's software solutions are already pre-vetted and compliant with rigorous public procurement standards. By integrating this contract into Civic Marketplace, public sector buyers can avoid the time and cost associated with conducting a new RFP by purchasing through an already competitively awarded contract.

The integration solves a critical bottleneck in government technology acquisition. Eligible public agencies can leverage the competitively awarded TXShare contract, including pre-negotiated pricing and contract terms, reducing the time and administrative burden associated with conducting a new, separate RFP.

Key advantages of procuring CobbleStone Software through Civic Marketplace include:

• Accelerated Time-to-Value: Bypasses standard bidding delays to deploy contract management tools in weeks rather than months.
• Guaranteed Compliance: Aligns fully with state and federal purchasing regulations, including Uniform Guidance requirements.
• Low-Friction Purchasing: Combines the administrative security of a premier cooperative contract with the ease of a modern digital shopping experience.

Public agencies interested in exploring CobbleStone Software offerings can visit the digital storefront on the Civic Marketplace platform or view contract details directly through the TXShare cooperative portal.

"Public sector agencies face immense administrative pressure to modernize their operations quickly and transparently," said Mark Nastasi, CEO of CobbleStone Software.

"By bringing our TXShare contract into Civic Marketplace's innovative digital storefront, we are making enterprise-grade contract management immediately accessible. Government buyers can now procure our leading CLM tools with the speed of online shopping while maintaining compliance."
