Purchasing Division

Overview
In any given year upwards of $30 million will be spent on a variety of capital acquisitions and projects and the repair and maintenance of our infrastructure. The Purchasing Division is responsible for acquiring goods and services and managing the disposal of surplus material in a responsible, professional and cost-effective manner.

How To Sell To The City
See Supplier's Guidelines.

Purchasing of Goods and Services
The City uses formal, phone and fax quotations, tenders and proposals to obtain goods and services with an annual value of greater than $500.

The City does not have a local preference policy but only advertises locally for goods and services where there are, in the opinion of the Purchasing Manager, significant local suppliers to ensure competitive pricing.

Central Stores
The Purchasing Division operates a Central Stores which contains most of the commonly used items used by City departments. In any given year the purchases of inventory products will reach $1.5 million.
