Business with the City
The City of Portland processes over 600 contracts for construction, goods, services and equipment annually. These services and products are obtained through a variety of methods, including formal and informal Invitations to Bid, Requests for Proposals and Requests for Standard Services. These opportunities are offered through the city’s website. Additional information about Doing Business with the City is available through this downloadable brochure.
Portland also has a Sheltered Market Program (SMP) which is designed to improve opportunities and build capacity of state-certified disadvantaged businesses (DBE), minority-owned businesses (MBE), women-owned businesses (WBE), and emerging small businesses (ESB) in the construction industry.
The Portland Development Commission (PDC) contracts for services separately from other city bureaus. Information about working with the PDC can be found here.
