LVMPD - About Us - Purchasing

LVMPD welcomes the opportunity to do business with interested suppliers. The LVMPD's Purchasing Unit is interested in fostering participation by all suppliers offering goods and services that may be used by the LVMPD.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, in partnership with Onvia, Inc., processes its procurement transactions through the Onvia DemandStar electronic procurement system.

In addition, suppliers may pick up a copy of the bid package at the LVMPD Purchasing Unit, City Hall, 400 Stewart, 7th floor, Las Vegas, Nevada, 89101.
