Contracting Opportunities - Vendor Meeting Changes
City Procurement is actively working to ensure fair, open and transparent access to our competitive solicitations for all interested participants. All in-person meetings such as pre-proposal and pre-bid conferences, bid openings and demonstrations that would normally be open to the public will be accessible via conference call or video conference only. This will continue until the City of Charlotte offices reopen to the public. Staff is assessing if this will be a continued option in addition to in-person meetings thereafter.
Instructions on how to use WebEx, our video conferencing platform.
Procurement staff have been notifying participants of any changes and publishing addendums to open solicitations with specific details regarding the date, time and method of accessing the meeting. Please monitor the
City’s Contract Opportunities Page for project-specific updates.
The City will continue to accept mail deliveries, and service providers are encouraged to mail responses to the address provided in the respective solicitation. Procurement staff is mitigating issues associated with bids delivered within deadline but not available for announcement during the formal bid opening. Please reach out to the contact listed on the solicitation if you have any questions or concerns.
On-site solicitation drop-off
For the health and safety of yourself and others, we strongly encourage you to submit your bids electronically or by mail; however, if you are unable to mail your solicitation response prior to the deadline and require on-site dropoff, please contact the Procurement Officer noted in the solicitation to coordinate an appropriate dropoff location and time.
