Purchasing

Mission Statement

The Purchasing Department is committed to facilitating the procurement of all goods and services efficiently and effectively, in compliance with the policies and procedures of the City of Parkland. The Purchasing Department acts prudently, uses good business judgment, and is fiscally responsible for following sound purchasing practices and procedures by promoting an open, fair, and transparent competitive process to ensure that the citizens of Parkland receive the optimum value for every expenditure.

Solicitations

The City adheres to the Public Procurement Values and Guiding Principles to ensure that every vendor receives the opportunity to offer goods and services, and that every bid is fairly evaluated. The City of Parkland utilizes an Electronic Bidding System for notification, distribution and submission of its solicitation documents. Solicitation documents can be downloaded from the website at no charge; however, prospective vendors must complete a one-time initial Online Registration to obtain free automatic email notification.

Vendor Registration

The City of Parkland, through our partner Bids & Tenders, maintains an online list of vendors interested in doing business with the City. This list will be used for sending automatic email notifications about business opportunities to prospective vendors.

While the City's automated system attempts to notify registered vendors when solicitation opportunities arise, the City is NOT responsible for notifications but only for the posting of solicitations. Please visit the website regularly for current information on solicitations and awards.

To register as a new vendor with the City, please complete the Online Registration. Updates to your vendor profile can be made through this form as well.

The below documents will be required before a purchase order or contract can be issued to the awarded vendor:

  1. Copy of Current Business License
  2. Certificate of Insurance
  3. IRS Form W-9
