Sales Visits
The city of Richmond encourages the supplier community to meet with and talk to prospective buyers within the organization. To schedule a sales visit, please call for an appointment during normal business hours. An appointment will ensure that the contract specialist familiar with your product or service will be available.
Purchase Card Program
The City of Richmond participates in a purchase card program through Bank of America, where agencies have VISA cards to use for the payment of qualifying small purchases. Using a P-Card allows payments to be made promptly, eliminates problems with delayed or lost payments, and reduces the overall processing requirements for transactions under $10,000.00.
Ask your purchasing Agency whether they are participating in the P-Card program and if so to use a P-Card for qualifying purchases.
Thank you for your interest in conducting business with the City of Richmond.
