Government Resources

The Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division provides access to contracts and services that help hundreds of state agencies, institutions of higher education and local governments operate more efficiently than if they had to establish all of their own contracts and services independently.

Print Services
The State Print Shop Web Portal is a online form for state agencies to submit print bid requests to all state and TCI print shops.

State Mail Services
Centralized contracts provides interagency mail and discounted mail services.

State Payment Card
The state's charge card may be issued for payment services or travel; rebates are accrued based on use.

State Travel Management
This program helps entities manage travel expenditures by providing discounted travel services through vendor contracts and monitoring state travel activity.

Texas SmartBuy Membership Program
The Texas SmartBuy Membership Program is the new name for the State of Texas Cooperative (CO-OP) Purchasing Program, the proven Texas trusted purchasing partner for local government and assistance organization buyers since 1979.

Vehicle and Fleet Management
VFM collects state agency fleet reports on inventory and operating costs, and compliance with alternative fuel program purchasing requirements.

Vendor Performance Tracking System (VPTS)
State agencies and statewide contract users report vendor performance to reduce risk in the contract award process.
