Register To Become A Vendor

When you register with our free online public procurement and bid management service on the
Public Purchase website, you will automatically be notified when formal bid opportunities of interest become available and be able to download bid solicitations.

Access to submit questions and respond to formal bids online as well as accessing bid opportunities from other government agencies will also be available with the free option.

In order to view specific bid information and respond to a bid, vendors will need to fully complete the Vendor Registration process by creating a Public Purchase account and then registering with the County of Fresno.

Please Note: Allow a minimum of 48 hours to fully complete the registration process.
