BONFIRE ELECTRONIC BIDDING

The City of Waco is transitioning to Electronic Bidding, Proposals and Qualification (RFB/RFP & RFQ) submissions. These requests will be managed through the new City’s Data base system, Bonfire.

We ask vendors to register with Bonfire to access and respond to any advertisement for bids and services required by the City. Registration is secure and user friendly. Vendors can register at the link below. Once registered, vendors will be able to:

• Register with the City of Waco.

• Receive notifications for bids and services requests from the City.

• Stay updated on changes, addendums, open solicitations.

• Submit bids and proposals electronically.

• Vendors can inquire about the details and requirements of various bidding opportunities.

The City will still accept bids and proposals by mail or drop off. Notifications of changes, addendums and updates will also be available on the City’s website as well as other media outlets the City uses for solicitations.

The City appreciates your participation. If you have questions during the electronic bid/proposal process, please contact the issuing buyer, whose contact information can be found in the solicitation document. You can also contact Bonfire with registration or customer support issues.

MINORITY, WOMEN-OWNED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (MWBE)

The City of Waco is committed to providing fair and equal opportunities for all vendors, especially those who face disadvantages in bidding and providing services to the City. The City collects and reports data on the MWBE status of vendors to the federal government as part of this effort. Vendors are asked to fill out the MWBE form and submit it with their offer when they respond to a bid or proposal solicitation.

The MWBE status helps the City ensure that small and disadvantaged businesses are included in the competitive solicitation process. However, the MWBE status does not determine the award of a contract.
