\nDoing Business with the City of New Orleans
\n
\nJoin the New Orleans Chamber of Commerce for an introduction to the \;registration process\, updating existing supplier profiles\, responding to solicitation\, and the payment process for City contracts.
\n
\nBenefits of obtaining City contracts can include: \;
- \n
- \;Assured Payment: while city'\;s payment terms are NET30\, a city contract can allow vendors to reply on receiving steady monthly revenue. \n
- Strengthen Company Value: having city contracts can make your company more valuable when it is time to sell or apply for a business loan or line of credit. Contracts can be passed on to the buyers of your business\, making your company a more attractive acquisition. \n
- Find More Opportunities: having a city contract can increase your networking potential. Future clients will find you much more attractive\, and they will gain higher levels of trust in your company. \n
- Advantages for socially and economically disadvantaged businesses: the Bureau of Purchasing works closely with the Mayor'\;s Economic Development Office and the Office of Supplier Diversity to ensure that City departments give due consideration to contracting with socially and economically disadvantaged businesses. \n
