Welcome to the Galena Park Independent School District Purchasing page — your central resource for doing business with GPISD. Here you’ll find everything vendors and campus staff need to register, submit bids, review awarded contracts, and follow district purchasing procedures.

Key resources:

• IONWAVE Supplier Registration, IONWAVE portal access, and IONWAVE Tutorials (including “Supplier Registration - Quick Tutorial” and “Supplier Bid Resource - Quick Tutorial”)
• Standard Purchasing Terms & Conditions and the full “Terms, Conditions & Instructions for Vendors.”
• Vendor Information Packet (required for vendors wanting to do business with GPISD; available through your campus or department liaison)
• Vendor Survey — help us serve you better by completing a brief survey
• Current solicitations, list of approved vendors, and awarded bids
• Frequently Asked Questions for vendors and campus/department purchasers
• Cooperative purchasing opportunities
• Submitted Local Government Officer Conflict Disclosure Statement and guidance on Local Government Officer / independent consultant vs. employee determination (note: independent contractors generally have greater autonomy, set their own hours, and may work for multiple clients; employees typically work under direct supervision and follow employer instructions)
• Information on campus & department contracts or services, and Fine Arts contracts or services
• Approval process and requirements for purchasing digital resources, software, or subscriptions
