MONUMENT, Colo., July 2, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Lewis Palmer School District 38 announced it has joined the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System and will be utilizing the system to publish and track their bid opportunities. Bidnet Direct's Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System provides a centralized location for bidding and connects nearly 450 participating agencies from across Colorado and Wyoming to a large vendor pool and helps to streamline the bid process, vendors can receive notifications of any new opportunities, as well as any addenda and award information available. Lewis Palmer School District 38 invites all potential vendors to register online at http://www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado/lewispalmersd38.

Before joining the system, Lewis Palmer School District 38 was distributing bids and managing the procurement process manually by handing out paper copies and requiring vendors to submit their proposals the same way. By distributing bids this way, local government agencies are not able to reach as many vendors as they would like, which doesn't allow for a high level of vendor competition. This competition is something Lewis Palmer School District 38 aims for and requires in order to award a contract. By joining the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, it expands an agency's vendor pool and enhances vendor competition without increasing distribution costs.

"This system allows our agency to not only save on time, money and effort, but it allows us to reach more qualified vendors across the state and gives them an opportunity to find more bids and decrease their costs by allowing them to submit their bid proposals online directly through the system," says Ricky Vestal, Manager Operations/Grounds of Lewis Palmer School District 38.
