Responses will be accepted in US dollars only, and the State reserves the right to utilize any resulting contract.

Bidders experiencing portal submission issues should contact the SWIFT vendor helpline at 651-201-8100, option 1, with the primary solicitation contact being Kyle Brent Ballantyne at Kyle.Ballantyne@state.mn.us or 651/259-5468.
