Office of Procurement
About Procurement
The Office of Procurement buys any goods or services, including real estate and construction, required by any city department. State law dictates advertising, purchasing, bidding, and contracting procedures. The department disposes of surplus or obsolete goods or equipment through public sales. Anyone wishing to review bids submitted for a particular good or service may do so by visiting the department during business hours.
Available Solicitations
COMMBUYS
Bid opportunities with the City of Springfield are now advertised on the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ online procurement system COMMBUYS. Hosting and advertising the opportunities on COMMBUYS allows vendors to be exposed to city solicitations as well as opportunities for business with the state. If you are a vendor interested in doing business with the city and are not registered for COMMBUYS already, please visit the COMMBUYS website and register your business. Registration is free and provides access to bidding opportunities with the Commonwealth as well as the City of Springfield.
BidDocs
BidDocs is a cloud-based process management system that is regularly used on large construction projects to upload detailed documents required by the design-bid-construction process. Go to https://biddocs.com/ for more information.
Important Information about Bid Deposits
All deposits must be submitted to the Office of Procurement in the form of a certified check, bank check, or money order made payable to the City of Springfield. At this time, we are unable to accept company checks as a deposit.
