How are quotes and/or bids submitted?
Telephone quotes will be submitted as requested by the Purchasing Agent or buyers. Bidders must always properly identify themselves, giving unit price, delivery and payment terms. Quotes may be submitted by mail, fax, or in person. Informal written bids may be submitted by mail or in person to the Purchasing Department prior to opening date and time.

Formal sealed bids or proposals are to be submitted by mail or in person to the Purchasing Department prior to opening date and time. All bidders submitting bids or proposals that have assigned bid numbers, titles, and opening times should utilize the return mailing label or mark their envelope with the following information:

(1) Bid Title and Number
(2) Opening Date and Time

Late bids or proposals will be returned unopened to the vendor. Sealed bids and proposals are accepted in the Purchasing Office during normal business hours Monday through Friday (excluding holidays).
