Colorado School for the Deaf and the Blind joins the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System
The Colorado School for the Deaf and the Blind (CSDB) announced today that it has joined the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, a regional purchasing group that helps local governments post, distribute and manage RFPs, quotes, addendums and awards online. Bidnet Direct’s Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System provides notification to registered vendors of new relevant solicitations, any addenda and award information from over 350 participating agencies from across Colorado and Wyoming. All potential CSDB vendors are encouraged to register online with www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado/csdb to access upcoming solicitations.

CSDB joined the purchasing group in November 2022. In joining, CSDB has become the 365th participating local government agency utilizing the system to streamline the purchasing process. The Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System is a single, online location for managing sourcing information and activities and provides local Colorado and Wyoming government agencies a method to minimize costs and time delays associated with the procurement process. In joining, CSDB looks to save time, increase competition, and achieve cost savings.

CSDB now has access to an extensive vendor pool, thereby enhancing competition without increasing distribution costs. In addition to the existing vendors on the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, all vendors looking to respond to bids with local government agencies can register online:
www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado/csdb. CSDB invites all current vendors not already registered on the purchasing group to do so today. Vendor registration is easy and takes only a few minutes online.

Registered vendors can access bids, related documents, addendum, and award information. In addition, the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System offers a value-added service to notify vendors of new bids targeted to their industry, all addenda associated with those bids and advance notice of term contract expiration. A robust NIGP code category list allows vendors registering to find the correct codes and receive matched bids.

Vendors may register on the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System: www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado. Bidnet Direct’s vendor support team is available to answer any questions regarding the registration process or the bid system at 800-835-4603 option 2.

Other local Colorado and Wyoming government agencies looking to increase their solicitation exposure, please contact the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System for a demonstration of the no-cost sourcing solution.
