Procurement

The procurement process is essential for ensuring that transit agencies have the tools they need for efficient and effective operations. However, navigating the procurement process can be complex and is a common source of findings in FTA state management and triennial reviews. To support Tennessee transit agencies, TDOT Passenger Transportation Section has developed this website to provide the necessary resources for:

  • Establishing a compliant, comprehensive, and user-friendly procurement policy
  • Guiding procurement transactions through step-by-step worksheets
  • Accessing external resources for procurement development and policy updates
