About this file

This is a Seller Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Checklist issued by the City of Philadelphia Procurement Department for small purchases through the PHLContracts platform. The checklist outlines the 13-step process that sellers must follow to submit a quote for a micro purchase opportunity that will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Sellers are required to quote all items listed in order to be eligible for award, and the City reserves the right to award the purchase as a whole or by individual line item, whichever serves the City's best interests. The document emphasizes that sellers must not deliver goods or provide services until officially notified by the requesting department.

The submission process requires sellers to complete multiple tabs within the PHLContracts system, including providing unit costs for each item, answering all mandatory questions, accepting terms and conditions, and submitting required attachments. A critical requirement is the submission of an executed Consent & Authorization form; quotes will not be considered without this document on file. Sellers are asked to indicate their Local Business Entity (LBE) certification status, though the LBE Program does not apply to small purchases. The checklist also encourages optional submission of the LGBTQ Applicant Opportunity Data Form. Sellers must review all downloaded attachments, address validation warnings before submission, and utilize the "Save & Continue" function on every tab to avoid losing their work during the quote preparation process.
