Registration Services

Registering your business with the County of Los Angeles and the Department of Public Works is one of the most important things that you can do to grow your business.
This site is your link to obtain information on technical assistance within public agencies in Los Angeles County, State of California, and Federal government. It also serves as a regional resource of business opportunities and an information clearinghouse for businesses on the Internet.
As a registered vendor, you establish a custom profile that lets the County of Los Angeles know what bid information you would like to receive by e-mail. You save valuable time because the County notifies you of contracting opportunities over $10,000. Register now!
Tell Public Works about your expertise as an architectural or engineering consultant. This information will be used by the Department when selecting firms to be invited to respond to Requests For Proposal (RFP). If you are a consultant in a different type of business, register with the County of Los Angeles using the vendor registration link provided above.
The CBE program was established to level the playing field for small business. Register now to take advantage of the program. You can also generate a list of County vendors by commodity. Other agencies access this listing when they are seeking to meet diversity goals.
The County's Local Small Business Enterprise Preference Program offers a bid price preference to small businesses with headquarters within Los Angeles County, giving them a competitive advantage in the bid selection process. You must be certified by the County to be eligible for the preference. See Program description and steps required for Certification. For assistance contact Public Works: dpwpio@dpw.lacounty.gov
