REQUESTS FOR PROPOSALS
Procurement Services has guidelines for when a Request for Proposal (RFP) is
required. Also listed here are current RFP's.
The RFP process is required when the total order exceeds $50,000. If you are requesting a
waiver from the bid process, a non-competitive bid statement must be
filled out, signed, and submitted to Procurement along with any quotes attached to the
requisition.
The RFP process typically requires 4 weeks - 1 week to draft the specifications and have
them approved by the Procurement & Contracting Specialist, the issuing department, and the
Director of Procurement Services - and 3 weeks for the proposals to be mailed to the vendors and
returned to Procurement. Departments should provide Procurement with
complete specifications, including quantities, sizes, colors, full descriptions.
Departments may suggest vendors and we will provide additional names based on the
approved vendor list.
