Welcome Suppliers
Existing Suppliers
The UTRGV Supplier Portal provides a secure and centralized way for suppliers to manage their business relationship with the university. While access to internal systems like iShopUTRGV and PaymentWorks is limited to UTRGV personnel, suppliers can still take advantage of the following resources:
- Update company and payment information via PaymentWorks (by invitation only, initiated by UTRGV)
- View and manage purchase orders and contract details (as communicated by UTRGV departments)
- Track invoice and payment status through direct communication or PaymentWorks (if invited)
- Respond to bid opportunities and view past solicitations through the Bonfire Portal
(Registration is required to download files or submit responses)
Visit the Purchasing and Bid Portals page for additional information, system overviews, and support contacts.
Prospective Suppliers
Procurement Services welcomes suppliers interested in partnering with the UTRGV community. We value relationships with organizations that support our commitment to diversity, social responsibility, and sustainable procurement practices.
UTRGV uses PaymentWorks to securely onboard new suppliers. However, access to PaymentWorks is by invitation only and initiated by a UTRGV department after a supplier has been selected for a contract or purchase.
If you're a prospective supplier, we encourage you to:
- Monitor open bid opportunities on our Bonfire portal
- Review our Supplier Basics to understand our procurement process and expectations
Once selected, you will receive an email invitation to register through PaymentWorks.
