Louisiana Office of State Procurement
Office of State Procurement
The Office of State Procurement serves the people of Louisiana by ensuring that the state’s contracting and purchasing activities are conducted legally, fairly and efficiently. OSP procures, or administers the procurement of, the equipment, goods, supplies and services needed by state agencies. As a result, the office has a joint role of regulatory compliance and customer service. OSP ensures that competition is full, fair and forthright, and that both contractors and agencies fulfill their contractual duties.
We welcome your interest in learning more about the state of Louisiana’s procurement processes, and we invite you to do business with the state. If we can assist you in finding the information you need, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The Office of State Procurement (OSP) is excited to announce that we have partnered with Procurated, a supplier/vendor rating and review site that is specifically for public procurement.
Using this tool will help us to gather feedback and better understand how our current suppliers are performing on our state contracts. It will also assist your agency in finding suppliers. Monitoring reviews will help OSP to identify any issues with supplier performance, so we can help mitigate ongoing matters before they become major problems.
To contribute your voice to this initiative, please take a few moments to join the program and complete your first supplier review. Access is completely FREE for any government agency. All you will need is a government-issued email address to set up an account. This ensures that only government personnel are utilizing the site.
