Purchasing
Information for Vendors and Prospective Vendors
Registering for Solicitations (Bonfire)
Vendors interested in doing business with PVSchools must register as a prospective bidder through Bonfire, the district’s solicitation and procurement notification system. Registration in Bonfire enables vendors to receive notifications of upcoming solicitations. It is critical to indicate that the business is located in Maricopa County and to select the appropriate commodity/service categories to ensure the receipt of relevant notifications.
Note: Bonfire is free for all prospective bidders and serves as the District’s official vendor database for solicitations.
Establishing a Vendor for Payments
Notice: Registration in Bonfire does not establish a vendor in the District’s purchase order and payment system. These are two distinct registration processes with different administrative purposes.
To receive payment under a PVSchools purchase order, vendors must complete the PVSchools Vendor Registration Form and submit a current, signed W-9 form. Vendor registration with the district is a mandatory prerequisite for the issuance of purchase orders and the processing of payments.
