Financial accountability has long been the standard for Georgetown-Scott County Parks and Recreation Department. In conjunction with the City of Georgetown and the Scott County Fiscal Court’s financial policies, the department works proactively to contain costs while increasing program participation, facility, and park use.
As part of the Parks and Recreation Department’s annual audit, each youth sports group will be audited at least once every four years on a rotating basis. In addition to the four year rotation of auditing, each year all youth sports organizations must submit requested financials within two weeks of request in accordance with the GSC Parks Youth Sports Agreement.
GSC Parks accepts proposals via the Public Purchase portal, which can be found at http://www.publicpurchase.com/. Potential vendors should register with GSC Parks on Public Purchase. Registration instructions can be found on the GSC Parks website at www.gscparks.com. All proposals, and inquiries related thereto, shall be submitted via Public Purchase. All questions related to registration for and use of Public Purchase shall be directed to Vicki Miller at vmiller@gscparks.com.

If you are already registered with Public Purchase previously please proceed directly to step 2.
It is important that this second part of the registration is complete or you will not receive notifications of upcoming quote opportunities from the Georgetown – Scott County Parks and Recreation. It is your responsibility to keep the information up to date, particularly the contacts and email addresses.
Why the switch?
Using this service will make the quoting process easier for us and our suppliers. The Public Purchase eProcurement System was designed exclusively for use by Government Agencies and their Vendors.
Benefits to Us
This eProcurement system is compliant with all Federal and State regulations, which determine the required procedures for Government Agency purchasing practices. This service will also create an up to date vendor database, which will be hosted on Public Purchase’s servers and will allow suppliers to easily update and change their information as needed.
What benefits to You?
This eProcurement system will create a single location in which to view open Requests for Quotation and award information for previous RFQ’s issued through the Public Purchase website. This system will also provide you with automatic notification and transmittal of bid solicitations to vendors. In addition, Public Purchase gives you access to bid opportunities with other government entities. All of this is provided at no charge to you.
If you need any assistance with this process please contact Public Purchase at support@publicpurchase.com. Or use their Live Chat during business hours. It can be found in the upper left corner of the web site.
Thank you for participating in Georgetown – Scott County Parks and Recreation’s new registration process.
