How to Do Business with the City of Tamarac

The City of Tamarac is committed to creating an environment that responds to customers. Our vendors are truly partners in meeting our commitment to the community. Our vendors are expected to deliver high-quality products and efficient service -- on time and as ordered -- to support the overall value of the services that the City provides to its residents.  

The Purchasing and Contracts division is responsible for providing a competitive and ethical environment that allows vendors to offer their products to the City on a fair and equitable basis. It arranges for purchases of all supplies, materials and equipment required by any City office or department (Tamarac Code Sec. 6-145). The ordering department is responsible for providing a complete description of goods or services required. 

As quality partners, the City and its vendors can make a real difference to residents and visitors. If you share our quality minded approach to doing business, we invite you to apply as a vendor with the City.

We’ve made it easy for you to join us.  All you need to do is to register on our website at www.tamarac.org/bids. This allows you to sign up for notifications on solicitations through our Electronic Procurement partner Bids&Tenders^TM. When you sign up, you will need to select the buying classifications for which you wish to receive invitations. Once we are ready to solicit for an item or service that you provide, you will receive an email notification.   

The City utilizes a paperless system that requires all solicitation responses to be submitted electronically through the Bids&Tenders^TM system. Paper responses will not be accepted. 

The only time paper will be used is for bid bonds required for the solicitation. Bid bonds must be submitted on paper and received in the Purchasing & Contracts division before the solicitation’s due date and time.  All questions about a solicitation must be electronically submitted through Bids&Tenders^TM before the established deadline for questions.

Thank you for joining us on our journey as we search for quality-minded vendor partners who, like all of us at the City of Tamarac, are committed to excellence!
