The information contained herein is designed to help you navigate doing business with the City of Phoenix.
The City of Phoenix Procurement Portal powered by OpenGov is the online platform where vendors can access and submit offers to solicitations. It supports the solicitation process within the City of Phoenix.
To receive notifications about new opportunities and submit offers, vendors must have an OpenGov account and subscribe to the City of Phoenix Procurement Portal. If a vendor already holds an OpenGov account, re-registration is not necessary.

procurePHX Vendor Registration Application
procurePHX, on the other hand, is the City’s vendor registration application connecting the procurement process to the City’s financial system. If a vendor is awarded a contract with the City or needs to receive payment from the City, the vendor must also be registered in procurePHX. Once registered in procurePHX, the vendor can access this portal to update/maintain their information and view the status of any invoice submitted into the system.
In summary, procurePHX manages vendor registration and payment, while the Procurement Portal is used for the solicitation and bidding process. Depending on the nature of the engagement, registration in both systems may be necessary for vendors to conduct business with the City of Phoenix.
Visit the procurePHX Vendor Registration homepage to learn more about it.
