Procurement

LISD's Procurement Department oversees the purchasing process of goods and services to ensure compliance with all applicable local, state, and federal laws.

LISD is now soliciting bids through the Bonfire e-bid system.

Please register your company on LISD's Bonfire Portal to stay informed on all upcoming bid opportunities.

For additional assistance, please email Bonfire Support directly at support@gobonfire.com or browse the Bonfire Support Webpage.

Please note: Registering an account on Bonfire does not automatically make you an awarded vendor. Your company must still submit a bid for the products/services offered and undergo an official evaluation. If selected, a committee will recommend your company to the LISD Board of Trustees. LISD will distribute official award letters to all Board awarded vendors.
