The Department of Property and Procurement “(Department or DPP)” was established pursuant to Title 3, Sections 211-221; and operates pursuant to Title 31, Sections 151-169, Sections 201-205, Sections 231 -251; and Sections 281-283, of the Virgin Islands Code and the corresponding rules and regulations. The Department’s mission is “to administer a sustainable and value-based system of procurement and property management focused on fostering stakeholder relationships, incentivizing technology, furthering process improvements, and building public trust. This manner of business extends to ensure operations are conducted efficiently, transparently, and fairly.”

The Department is committed to providing assistance to all Executive Branch departments, offices, boards, commissions, institutions, and other agencies (except for the Judicial and Legislative branches of the government) in their efforts to acquire goods and services by utilizing a procurement system that is fair, prompt, quality-oriented, cost-efficient and most importantly, according to the law that ensures they are in compliance with the Procurement Standards of Purchasing. In addition, to its procurement functions, the Department provides Property Management, Transportation, Central Stores and Warehousing, Mail Delivery, and Printing Production services to the Executive Branch.  Although DPP is not statutorily required to assist the Judicial and Legislative Branches, DPP aids all Executive Branch departments as well as the Judicial and Legislative Branches with various needs. All Branches of Government seek information from DPP daily relative to the status of commercial leases, GVI properties, space management leases, contracts, solicitations, just to name a few.
