Bids and RFPs

Introduction

Bid/Proposal notices will no longer be mailed to contractors/vendors by the Purchasing Office. The City of Shreveport’s listing of current bids (IFB), requests for quotes (RFQ), requests for proposals (RFP), and statements of qualifications (RFS) (hereinafter “bids”) will be posted on BidSync.com. Click here to see bids posted on BidSync. To request copies of bids by e-mail, send your request with the bid number to tom.mattox@shreveportla.gov and cc donald.evans@shreveportla.gov.


To view the general bid information and receive bid notices by e-mail, you will have to register with BidSync. Registration is free. Vendors/Contractors (vendors) will now have the option to submit their responses to RFQ's and IFB's, electronically or by paper copy [R.S. 38-2212(A)(1)(F) and R.S. 2212.1(B)(4)]. If you wish to view the entire bid package and submit electronic bids though BidSync, you may do so for $100 per year. Vendors/Contractors who decide to submit e-bids will also have to pay an annual fee of $197 for a digital signature. It takes about two weeks to get a digital signature. The City will only be allowed to view the vendor’s prices after the time has passed for the receipt of bids. Vendors who decide to pay the annual fee to BidSync will be able to submit electronic bids to every agency in the State of Louisiana that signs up with BidSync. Submitting bids electronically can save thousands of dollars in express mail fees, plan fees/deposits, travel, postage, labor, and the cost of paper. Please click the link below to register: http://www.bidsync.com/help/bidsync/suppliers.html.


RFPs and RFSs will be posted on BidSync; however, only paper responses will be accepted for these. If you need help registering or with training or completing an e-bid, please call 800-990-9339 (M-F) 8 AM to 7 PM (CST). Contractors who submit e-bonds will need to pay an annual fee to http://surety2000.com/  for electronic bid bonds.
