Vendor Registration Information and Resources
Register in VSS
Vendors receiving purchase orders and payments from Prince William County Public Schools are required to register and maintain accurate and current information on our Vendor Self-Service (VSS) website.
PWCS Vendor Self-Service (VSS) Website
Contact [email protected] for assistance with registering or other vendor account concerns.
The VSS site will be unavailable the second full weekend of each month for scheduled system maintenance.
Vendor registration status in VSS:
- Does not indicate that the vendor is "Approved" to do business with PWCS.
- Does not indicate that the vendor has a Master Agreement (MA)/contract with PWCS.
Refer to Regulation: 470-1 for more information.
Registering in eVA
Prince William County Public Schools uses Virginia's eProcurement Portal (eVA) for issuing formal solicitations. Registering with eVA allows vendors to select commodity codes that represent the goods or services for which they would like to receive notices of current bid opportunities. Once your business is registered in eVA, you will automatically receive electronic notices of bid and solicitation opportunities that are relevant to the commodity code(s) you selected during registration.

Register in Bonfire
PWCS uses a procurement portal powered by Bonfire for accepting and evaluating bids. Register in Bonfire. Registration is free.
For additional assistance, email Bonfire Technical Support at [email protected] or visit the Bonfire Technical Support website.
Submitting bids via the Bonfire portal is mandatory for solicitations issued by PWCS. PWCS will not accept bids submitted by paper, telephone, facsimile (“FAX”) transmission, or electronic mail (e-mail) in response to solicitations issued by PWCS, unless otherwise stated in the solicitation.
