Registration for eProcure, Sarasota County’s
new online procurement system, offering two more sessions. The eProcure system
replaces the current online service with a free, single website for
Sarasota County solicitations, policies, procedures and forms.
Two free training sessions will be offered on the date listed
below at the Sarasota County Administration Center, 1660 Ringling Blvd.,
Sarasota. Each session lasts about one hour. The sessions will begin at
8:30 a.m. and 9:45 a.m. with advanced registration required. Each
session has a capacity of 25 participants.
Vendors who register with eProcure will be automatically notified when
bids are issued that potentially match their qualifications. Vendors
also may claim local preference upon registration, instead of completing
stringent preference guidelines each time they submit a solicitation.
Vendors must register to do business with Sarasota County. The county
procurement department expects to begin posting solicitations to
eProcure in May.
The new system will eliminate internal redundancies, improve reporting
capabilities and substantially reduce Sarasota County’s environmental
footprint by saving vendors the cost of preparing and printing submittal
materials for solicitations that can be submitted electronically.
For more information about eProcure and
to RSVP for one of the training sessions, contact the Sarasota County
Call Center at 941-861-5000. |
