Welcome
To make it easier for government and businesses to work together, the City of Issaquah is a partner in the
Shared Procurement Portal (SPP),
a partnership of seven public agencies to consolidate procurement services. This website is a one-stop shop for
procurement opportunities via the online roster system
Public Purchase.
How to Register
Learn how to sell products or provide services to the City of Issaquah: Businesses may apply on the
Vendor Registration
page. Please note: The City uses NIGP codes to classify what
types of goods or services to solicit.
Materials, Supplies & Equipment
Purchases of material, supplies and equipment of $90,000 or less do not require a formal competitive bid or
public notice. Price quotations for such purchases are typically solicited either through the City's online
roster program, Public Purchase. or via email.
Purchases of $5,000 or less do not require a competitive process.
Public Works
Public works include all work, construction, alteration, repair or improvement other than ordinary maintenance,
executed at the cost of the agency. For public work projects under $300,000, the City may utilize their Public
Purchase Roster to solicit bids. For projects over $300,000, the City posts notices on its
website and in local publications.
Services
The City contracts for various services, including maintenance, engineering, legal and recreation services.
Depending on the estimated cost of the work and other considerations, the City may issue either a Request for
Proposals (RFPs) or Request for Qualifications (RFQs). Per State and City policy, for certain types of
professional, legal or recreation services, the City may review, evaluate and select consultants based off their
Statement of Qualifications (SOQ). To be considered for work with the City, consultants that have registered for
these types of services must upload an SOQ to the City's roster.

posting solicitation information on this website, the City advertises larger projects in
