Vendor Registration, Bids, & Contracts

Body

The City of Santa Barbara purchases goods and services from suppliers throughout the state and nationwide. We also enter into contracts with a wide variety of businesses and individuals for a broad spectrum of products and services. These purchase orders and agreements are governed by the City's commitment to quality, cost effectiveness, efficiency and fairness in a competitive arena as well as adherence to applicable statutes, rules and regulations. The integrity of our procurement process is of utmost importance. Construction bids are handled by the Public Works department.

Bid Results/Register to Receive City Bids

The City conducts all bidding and proposal solicitations online through PlanetBids™. Businesses should register below for the commodities they are interested in bidding on or selling, or as an emergency vendor. The City is only accepting electronic bids. The initial bidders’ list will be developed from registered vendors.
