Buying Activities List
- Federal, State and Local Government Buying Activities in Missouri [Word] - updated 2/1/11
The list of Missouri Buying Activities is a listing of major federal, state, local government and Department of Defense prime contractor buying offices.
You as a contractor should consider reviewing this list and identifying those organizations with whom you would like to do business. For Department of Defense buying offices, you must be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) system. Other federal buying activities may select their list of companies for bidding purposes from the Small Business Administration's PRO-Net system. The state of Missouri also has a registration system in which you must be registered. Other buying offices may have other registration processes in which you must be registered. The Missouri Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (MO PTAC) can assist you with these registrations.
Registration is just the first step. You may improve your chances of receiving a government contract by marketing directly to those buying offices. Visitation to the person's office is the preferred method. It is understood that there are many demands for your time, so telephone calls, mailing or e-mailing company information is also suggested.
This is only a limited listing of government buying offices that may be interested in your product or service. Others include: school systems; police departments; water districts; sheriff departments; county commissioners; county road districts; public works departments; and others to name a few.
