2. Response Procedures

City Council Meeting · 2026-04-14 · agenda_item

The City of Clermont is reviewing its procurement procedures. They currently use an e-Procurement system called OpenGov for bid notifications and managing solicitations. Vendors can register on this portal for free to receive alerts about new projects, addenda, and award announcements. The city uses NIGP Commodity Codes to match vendors with relevant projects based on their registered profiles. This process is currently under review as part of the city's purchasing policy. The city is also seeking information regarding single or sole source acquisitions to ensure specifications are not overly restrictive and can be met by multiple companies. This review aims to ensure fair competition and efficient procurement for city projects. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to register on the OpenGov portal to stay informed about future opportunities. Early registration and profile updates can help ensure you receive notifications for projects that align with your business capabilities.
