Springfield Public Schools welcome doing business with a
diverse group of vendors who provide a wide range of services for our students
and staff members. Below you will find a comprehensive guide to doing business
with the district.
Procurement:

new vendor providing services/goods for the first time, or have updated
information to provide, please contact [email protected] to request a Vendor Maintenance Packet
To work with SPS, a Vendor File must first be created. A new
vendor packet needs to be sent to: [email protected]

The purchasing process is as follows:

selected vendor.

School or department will enter a request for a
purchase order.
- ·
Purchase order will be sent to vendor once
request is converted.
- ·
Vendor may render goods and services at the time
of receipt.

*** All invoices must contain at minimum: Vendor
name, remittance address, “Bill to” address, “Ship to” address, invoice date, unique
invoice number, purchase order number, purchase details and the total
