Thank you for your interest in the Housing Authority of the City of Austin. If you are a supplier of products, goods and/or services, you have come to the right place.

The Purchasing Department procures a wide range of supplies and equipment normally associated with household maintenance, repair of apartment units and the support of day-to-day operations of HACA. This includes items such as electrical, plumbing, painting supplies, refrigerator and stove parts, shades, vehicle parts, office and janitorial supplies. The department also procures services to include such items as fire protection, elevator maintenance, janitorial services, ground maintenance, auditing, insurance and training.

The Planning and Development Department procures services for architects and all construction related bids/proposals and coordinates modernization projects for the agency.

All purchases exceeding $50,000 are carried out through formally advertised Invitations for Bids (IFBs) and Request for Proposals (RFPs). Generally, RFPs are used for professional services, high-tech equipment and computer software, while IFBs are used for most other items that are bought on a low-bid basis.

HACA actively reaches out to Minority Business Enterprises and Women Business Enterprises to fulfill our policy of promoting opportunities for such businesses.

Open RFPs and IFBs are also advertised on Sundays in the Public Notice section of the Austin American-Statesman classifieds.
