City of Sierra Vista Procurement believes in fair and open competition in all bidding and contracting activities.  We encourage maximum participation by Disadvantaged Business Enterprises, Minority Business Enterprises and Woman-Owned Business Enterprises.

Visits to Procurement by sales representatives are welcomed and encouraged. To schedule an appointment in-person or virtual, please contact the appropriate procurement officer. Our office is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. through 5 p.m., except city holidays.

The City has developed a Doing Business with the City of Sierra Vista Guide to acquaint suppliers with Procurement management policies and procedures.

Supplier Outreach Program

Our key business goal to ensure that historically underutilized businesses are given every opportunity to benefit from the City of Sierra Vista procurement program, especially small business, woman-owned and minority-owned companies, partnerships and sole proprietorships.

Contract officers and end-users throughout the City of Sierra Vista have access to a verifiable database of HUB firms that can be solicited for business opportunities.  To that end, two websites have been linked to this page that can be used by City of Sierra Vista personnel to establish bid lists for the requirement needed.  These lists are maintained by third party agencies who certify the firms that are listed.  Either of the links will allow an end-user to enter a general description such as painting, custodial, landscaping, legal services, etc. and quickly receive a sorted list of representative firms who may be contacted for price quotes.

Please feel free to contact Kennie Downing, Chief Procurement Officer, (520-439-2165) if you would like to discuss this program in more detail.

The following links provide excellent sources for recruiting HUB suppliers:

• Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program
• State of Arizona
