Become an Approved Vendor
Thank you for your interest in becoming an approved vendor, awarded to do business with Humble ISD.
Most Humble ISD purchases are made from vendors who have been awarded bids through the bidding process managed by the District's Purchasing Department.
Additional Humble ISD purchases are made with vendors that have been awarded a contract through our Co-Op affiliations.

Registering in Ion Wave does not make a company an approved, awarded vendor.
Registering in Ion Wave allows your firm access to review any of the solicitations that the District is issuing.
Your company must still respond to a solicitation and be awarded by the Humble ISD Board of Trustees in order to be an approved, awarded vendor to our District.
Once successfully registered, your company will automatically receive e-mail notifications when solicitations (RFP's, RFQ's, CSP's, and Quotes) for the particular commodities selected during the registration process are available.
Successfully registered companies will be able to access and submit solicitation responses through the Humble ISD Ion Wave bid program, all online. No more mailing or paper bid submittals.
