Kennesaw, GA (PRWEB) - Today, the City of Kennesaw has officially joined the Georgia Purchasing Group to help simplify their bid and RFP distribution process. The Georgia Purchasing Group is one of bidnet direct’s regional purchasing groups which offers participating local government agencies an e-procurement solution. The City of Kennesaw invites all vendors to register online with the Georgia Purchasing Group to access its upcoming solicitations by visiting https://www.bidnetdirect.com/georgia/cityofkennesaw.

With the Georgia Purchasing Group, vendors register to access one centralized location with opportunities from 21 participating agencies throughout Georgia. By posting upcoming solicitations to the regional purchasing group, rather than their website, the City of Kennesaw hopes to make it easier for more vendors to access their documents. They also hope to expand the reach of their solicitations to a more diverse vendor pool. Unlike the prior process of only publishing bids to a webpage, the Georgia Purchasing Group provides a method to track all bid activity, including the details of vendors who have received or downloaded a bid.

“Sometimes distributing a bid on our site just isn’t enough,” says James Friedrich, Deputy City Clerk of the City of Kennesaw. “Posting the bid for an entire regional community of vendors to see will help us reach more variety of qualified local suppliers. We like that with the Georgia Purchasing Group we can quantifiably track the level of diversity.”

The City of Kennesaw invites all local vendors to visit https://www.bidnetdirect.com/georgia/cityofkennesaw and register to receive access to its upcoming solicitations as well as the upcoming bids and RFPs from 20 other public agencies participating on the Georgia Purchasing Group. Registered vendors also gain access to a team of experienced customer service support representatives and can upgrade their service to receive customized bid alerts, advanced notice of term contract expiration, and notification of a recently posted addendum.
