The City of Baton Rouge, Parish of East Baton Rouge (City-Parish) Vendor Self-Service (VSS) system enables vendors to register and maintain information about their organization for the purpose of doing business with the city-Parish, monitor purchase orders, invoices, and payments, and receive notifications of business opportunities. City-Parish procurement activities are subject to State of Louisiana Public Bid Law, local City-Parish ordinances as well as applicable federal statutes as directed by grant providers. Vendors must be registered to receive bid notifications.
