Doing Business with UTA

Information is provided on this webpage to assist vendors in selling their goods and services to the university.

At The University of Texas at Arlington, fostering collaborative partnerships in our community is something that I see in action with the work you do every day. We have a responsibility to support the communities we serve. One way we do that is by ensuring there are opportunities for Historically Underutilized Businesses (HUBs) to do business with UTA. When we promote full and equal procurement opportunities for small minority- and women-owned businesses, we are contributing to the prosperity of the communities we live and work in.
