Town of Ithaca joins the Empire State Purchasing Group by Bidnet Direct
The Town of Ithaca is now part of the Empire State Purchasing Group, connecting over 300 agencies throughout New York, making advertisements on projects/services available across the state and beyond as well as providing one-stop shopping for information for all vendors, the public and town staff. All potential vendors for the Town of Ithaca are encouraged to register online by visiting www.bidnetdirect.com/new-york/townofithaca to access upcoming solicitations.

Bidnet Direct is a single online location for managing information and activities associated with the bidding process, from start to finish, providing tools to minimize costs and increase efficiency for both the town and the vendor(s). The Town will be able to track how many vendors match a specific opportunity, have downloaded documents, responded and more.

The Town’s goal is to cast as large a net as possible to encourage bidding and the broad reach of Bidnet Direct will enhance that outreach and therefore increasing competition by reaching more potential bidders.

The Town also has its own public facing page where anyone can view all closed bids and award information, increasing transparency and efficiency in the processes.

The Town of Ithaca invites all vendors to register online with the Empire State Purchasing Group to access upcoming solicitations by visiting www.bidnetdirect.com/new-york/townofithaca or use the link on the town website.

Bidnet Direct’s vendor support team is available to answer any questions from staff, vendors and the public at 800-835-4603 option 2.
