Doing Business with Pinal County
The principal objective of the Pinal County Purchasing Division is to acquire quality goods and services that meet the County's needs at a reasonable price while ensuring a fair and competitive process. This is accomplished through the use of sound, competitive procurement procedures. In order to provide the best value for taxpayers and county departments, Pinal County Purchasing is guided in its procurement procedures by several policy mandates, which include:
- To conduct all procurement according to Arizona state law and the Pinal County Procurement Code
- To obtain the quantity and quality of materials and services at the right price and when needed
- To maximize competition and provide interested and qualified vendors with the opportunity to offer their products or services to the County
Pinal County recognizes that our local business community has a keen interest in doing business with the County and to that end, we advertise formal solicitations in the Casa Grande Valley Newspapers, Inc. Solicitations are also available for download.
