About this file

This document is an instructional guide for bidding on public events posted by the City of Minneapolis through its eSupplier platform. The guide provides step-by-step procedures for suppliers to access, review, and submit bids on available contracting opportunities. Suppliers begin by accessing the public eSupplier home page, navigating to the Contracting Opportunities section, and selecting either the Invited Events or Public Events tab to view available bidding opportunities. Before submitting a bid, suppliers must review all event-related documents available through the View Bid Package link, which may include forms or attachments required for submission. The bidding process involves responding to event-specific questions, uploading required files and attachments, entering a unit bid price, and submitting the bid through the designated Bid on Event button.

The document emphasizes that fields marked with red stars are mandatory and must be completed prior to submission. Suppliers have the ability to add multiple file attachments and comments to support their bids. Upon submission, bidders receive both an on-screen confirmation and a confirmation email. The guide does not specify pricing terms, contract duration, award timelines, or other substantive contract details, as it serves purely as a procedural reference for navigating the eSupplier bidding platform used by the City of Minneapolis.
