Management Services











       Introduction

       The Management Services Department provides financial and operational oversight to ensure the City of Grand Prairie runs
       efficiently and responsibly. The department includes four core divisions—Budget, Purchasing, Internal Audit, and Debt Management
       —that support strategic planning, sound financial practices, and transparent use of public funds.


       The Budget Division develops the City’s annual operating and capital budgets, monitors spending, and provides financial analysis to
       support decision-making.


       The Purchasing Division manages the procurement of goods and services, ensuring compliance with laws while promoting fair
       competition and value.


       The Internal Audit Division evaluates internal processes, safeguards City resources, and helps departments improve efficiency and
       compliance.


       The Debt Management Division ensures the timely repayment of the City’s debt obligations and coordinates the annual Truth-in-
       Taxation process across the four counties where Grand Prairie is located, helping ensure compliance and transparency in property
       tax rate setting.


       Together, these functions help support every City department, maintain financial stability, and ensure accountability to the public.
