Welcome to the ACES Marketplace — your go-to hub for connecting with top-notch, charter-friendly businesses! This Marketplace serves as a convenient “one-stop shop” where schools can explore vendors who can bring value to the charter school community. We’ve handpicked vendors we believe can help charter schools thrive, offering a wide range of services and products tailored to your needs.
Please note: Although all Marketplace vendors have been vetted by ACES for their potential to benefit charter schools, they *do not* hold an ACES-awarded contract. This means that schools must follow all applicable requirements under the New Mexico Procurement Code when purchasing goods or services from ACES Marketplace vendors. (If you decide to spend more than $60K annually with any Marketplace vendor, let us know and we might consider handling the procurement for you.)
