About this file
This is a procedural guide document for the City of Minneapolis eSupplier system, detailing instructions for suppliers on how to bid on public contracting events posted through the city's procurement platform. The document provides step-by-step guidance for accessing the eSupplier portal, navigating to available bidding opportunities through either invited or public events tabs, reviewing event details and associated bid packages, and understanding the bidding process. Suppliers are instructed to thoroughly review all event-related documents before submitting bids, as some documents may require completion and attachment to the bid submission. The guide emphasizes that fields marked with red stars are mandatory and must be completed as part of the bidding requirements.
The document outlines the technical mechanics of bid submission, including uploading required files, adding comments, entering unit bid prices, and submitting bids through the eSupplier system. Bidders receive confirmation of their submissions both on-screen and via email. The guide does not address pricing terms, contract awards, or specific contract details, as it functions as a user instruction manual rather than a solicitation document. This procedural guidance applies to the City of Minneapolis' procurement process for various opportunities, including the referenced Green Careers Exploration Program for youth-led climate action projects.
