Contracting with the City of Tulsa
Selling to the City
It is the policy for the City of Tulsa to
encourage the use of minority, woman and/or service disabled
veteran owned businesses in contracting opportunities. All
City contracting opportunities $25,000 and above are advertised in
the Tulsa Daily Commerce and Legal News.
These contracts may also be located in the Bid
News, Dodge Reports and some online advertisements. All
general contractors must show good faith effort and should be aware
of some of the definitions. Human Rights Department evaluates the
effectiveness of demonstrated good faith efforts.
Purchasing
Contracting opportunities below $25,000 are not
typically advertised. To obtain an opportunity for this type
of contract it is necessary for the business to register as a
vendor with the City of Tulsa Purchasing department.
Notification of purchasing contract opportunities
will be sent to the businesses based on the commodity code(s)
selected during the registration process. A business may
receive contracting opportunities by e-mail, fax or U.S. mail.
Buyers are listed online by the commodities that
they purchase. Under this process it is important that the
business build a working relationship with the purchasing
buyer.
Construction
Contracting departments such as Public Works, Tulsa
Airport Authority, and Urban Development are responsible for most
building renovations, street repairs, concrete finishing, and
similar services.
