We are currently in the process of migrating to a new procurement portal. We will be transitioning from Public Purchase to OpenGov. Please check both sites for bidding opportunities.


The NBU Purchasing department assists the organization with purchasing equipment, materials, supplies, and services to allow for competition between potential vendors by following local, state, and federal laws and regulations. Purchasing supports NBU departments in their specification writing to secure fair and open competition and requests formal bids or proposals for goods or services exceeding $50,000, unless otherwise permitted by law.

The Purchasing Department advertises all Request for Bids and Request for Proposals in the New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung Newspaper and publishes bids on the Public Purchase or OpenGov websites.
