The Finance Department Purchasing Division offers many opportunities for companies to sell their general goods and services to the city. The city purchases these goods and services through a competitive process. Purchasing issues formal solicitations under either Invitation for Bid (IFB) or Request for Proposal (RFP). These documents are available for download under the current solicitation links on the left side of this page.
The Purchasing Division also offers other opportunities not available online (Request for Quotation (RFQ)). This type of solicitation is the responsibility of the individual buyer assigned to the request. Please see the Purchasing Staff link below to determine the appropriate person to contact to be placed on the list to receive these opportunities by fax.
Professional services and purchases under $1000 are processed on a department level basis. Each department maintains their own listing of available vendors. The Business Liaison link below will provide a listing of contacts for each city department.
