eSupplier_Review_Update_Bid.pdf

This is an instructional guide published by the City of Minneapolis regarding the eSupplier procurement platform, specifically detailing procedures for reviewing and updating submitted bids. The document provides step-by-step instructions for suppliers who have already submitted bids to access, review, modify, and resubmit their proposals through the eSupplier system. The guide outlines the process of navigating the Supplier Secure Home Page, locating previously submitted bids through the My Event Activity tile, and accessing bid information via Event ID selection. Suppliers are instructed on how to view, edit, or copy from saved bids, with specific guidance that resubmitted bids must use the Submit Bid button rather than the Save for Later function to maintain valid bid status.

The document emphasizes critical procedural requirements for bid submission, noting that selecting Save for Later will change the bid status from "Submitted" to "Saved" and render the bid invalid for consideration. Upon submission of bid changes, suppliers receive a Bid Confirmation screen and confirmation email. The guide is dated May 6, 2024, and provides contact information for eSupplier technical support through the City of Minneapolis eProcurement department at eProcurement@minneapolismn.gov. This instructional material supports the City's RFP for employee mental health and healing support services.
