Procurement

The Procurement Department is responsible for the purchasing of construction, improvements, repair, building, goods, supplies, materials, and services, to be used for port district purposes, as specified by Florida State Law, and Chapter 95-488, Laws of Florida (the Tampa Port Authority’s enabling act). This includes the coordinating of all aspects of the purchase, from the receipt of a department requisition to issuance of a purchase order or contract.

The Department’s goal is to ensure that the Tampa Port Authority receives quality work, merchandise, and/or services at the most competitive price. We invite all businesses to participate in the Tampa Port Authority’s purchasing process.

DOING BUSINESS WITH THE PORT

The Port Authority does not keep a “bidder’s/vendor’s list”. All Invitations to Bids (ITB), Requests for Proposals (RFP) or Requests for Qualifications (RFQ) are posted to the Onvia (DemandStar) System (www.demandstar.com). Once you have download documents for a specific bid, RFP or RFQ, you will automatically be notified of any Addendums or Letters of Clarification posted for that specific project. We also advertise upcoming projects in four (4) local newspapers: The Tampa Tribune, The St. Petersburg Times, La Gaceta and the Florida Sentinel.
