Miami-Dade County has streamlined the process for accepting bids and proposals by requiring vendor affidavits only once – at the time of vendor registration. Starting June 1, 2008, vendors will be able to provide required affidavits one time, instead of each time they submit a bid or proposal for goods or services. Solicitations advertised after June 1st will require that all vendors complete the new Vendor Registration Package before they can be awarded a new County contract. This process becomes effective July 1, 2008 for design and construction contracts.
The streamlined process will:
-
Continue to allow vendors to submit a single Vendor Registration Package to establish contact with County departments requesting goods and services
-
Incorporate affidavits in the Vendor Registration Package, allowing for a one-time process for accepting affidavits. (Currently vendors are required to submit affidavits each time they respond to a solicitation)
-
Require updates to the Vendor Registration Package, including the affidavits, only when changes occur
-
Allow vendors to affirm that the affidavits provided with their Vendor Registration Package are current, complete and accurate, at the time they submit responses to solicitations
| Vendors must complete the new Vendor Registration Package to ensure eligibility for new contract awards and to take advantage of the streamlined bid/proposal process. |
Vendor Registration Packages can be easily downloaded, and must be completed in ink or by typing. Completed Vendor Registration Packages can be hand delivered or mailed to the below address.
