Find Government Contracting Opportunities at All Levels—Local, State & Federal

How Government Purchasing Works

Government entities typically manage procurement through centralized Purchasing and Contracting divisions. These divisions are staffed with procurement advisors and buyers who specialize in different categories of goods and services, ensuring fair, transparent, and compliant purchasing practices.

If you need to identify the correct point of contact for a particular agency or opportunity, most agencies provide buyer information on their Purchasing or Contact pages, or through their vendor support hotlines.

Standard Terms & Conditions

Government contracts generally follow established Standard Terms and Conditions that outline expectations, compliance requirements, and performance obligations. These serve as a contracting foundation, but may vary depending on:

• The purchasing agency (city, county, state, or federal)
• Contract type and project scope
• Funding sources
• Regulatory requirements

Vendors should review these terms carefully to understand each agency's specific requirements.

Interlocal & Cooperative Agreements

Many government agencies participate in interlocal, interagency, or cooperative purchasing agreements, enabling them to:

• Share resources
• Streamline procurement
• Access contracts awarded by other jurisdictions
• Combine buying power to achieve better value

These agreements—authorized through state and federal cooperation laws—create additional pathways for vendors to work with multiple agencies through a single contract.

Upcoming Competitive Opportunities

Cities, counties, state agencies, and federal departments routinely publish lists of future competitive solicitations for goods, services, and routine operational needs. These early-stage listings give vendors insight into:

• Projects being planned
• Solicitations expected to be advertised
• Anticipated timelines
• Opportunities across multiple government levels

Please note:

• Opportunities may be updated, revised, or cancelled.
• Agencies continue to add new opportunities on a rolling basis.
• Vendors are encouraged to register in each agency's procurement portal to ensure visibility and receive notifications.

If you have questions about a specific opportunity, each listing typically includes a contracting officer or administrator you can contact directly.
