Prospective Vendors
Carroll ISD Purchasing supports the procurement needs of the District. As a government entity, Carroll ISD must utilize competitive procurement methods in spending categories that exceed a prescribed annual spending volume. The Purchasing staff assists campuses and departments in obtaining the products and services necessary to serve our students by finding existing approved vendors or by gathering and composing Bids, Requests for Proposals and Requests for Qualifications and developing approved vendor lists.
To Become a Purchasing Approved Vendor for Carroll ISD
Your company will need to register on our vendor registration website. It is a simple process, go to the link below:
Click on Supplier Registration (on the right hand side) and follow the screens to register. This will add your company to our list of vendors who will be notified IF / WHEN we go out to bid for your specific services and/or materials. It does not make you an approved vendor, but allows you to be notified when we are in the bid process.
