Most goods and services are purchased through existing Executive Branch state price contracts. However, the AOC also issues for professional services and other court-specific needs.
Vendor Requirements
To do business with the Commmonwealth of Kentucky, including the Judicial Branch, vendors must be registered through the Vendor Self Service website. A completed Vendor Disclosure Form is also required before any contact or purchase order can be issued by the AOC.
Business entities must be registered with the Kentucky Secretary of State to be eligible to register as a vendor with the Commonwealth. Foreign entities must have a Cerificate of Authority.
Finding Bidding Opportunities
All solicitations issued by the AOC on behalf of the KCOJ are posted on the Commonwealth of Kentucky's Vendor Self Services website. Registered vendors can use the site to search for current bidding opportunities and review recent awards.
Vendors may also sign up to receive alerts about new bidding opportunities relevant to their field of business.
