The document is an instructional guide for responding to electronic bids (eBids), specifically targeted at government procurement participants. The guide, provided by DemandStar, outlines a 5-step process for submitting electronic bid proposals, with a specific example related to a parts procurement opportunity at Waukesha County Technical College (WCTC) in Wisconsin. The electronic bidding process involves clicking on a solicitation, navigating the bid details page, entering bid information page-by-page, uploading required documents, and submitting the final response before the specified due date and time.
The guide emphasizes key technical aspects of electronic bidding, including the ability to update bid responses until the official due date, the requirement to input a total bid amount (or "0" if not applicable), and the option to submit supplemental documents. For technical support during the eBid process, bidders can contact DemandStar at (206) 940-0305 or support@demandstar.com. The specific contract opportunity involves procuring Parts: Servo and Drive Trainers for automation equipment assembly at WCTC, located in the state of Wisconsin.

Responding to an Electronic Bid 5 Step Instructions
Step 1
Many governments are moving toward requiring bid responses electronically.
Here are the steps to respond to an eBid.
• Click on the solicitation.
Step 2
Once you are in the solicitation, you will see the Bid Details page that is standard for all solicitations.
• When you are ready to submit your bid, click on “Submit E-Bid Proposal”.
• There is no charge for you to submit your proposal through this electronic process.
Step 3
Enter information requested page-by-page and you can see what will come next via the menu bar on the left under “E-Bid Progress”.
Put in the total bid amount on this page as it will automatically be included in the Tabulation Form to be shown during the public opening on the due date/time.
Note: if your bid amount can’t be summarized in a single number, or the solicitation is a request for qualifications and doesn’t require a bid amount, you should input “0” under “Bid Amount”.
Step 4
After you click NEXT on the Contact Information page, you will be directed to enter the documents required. In this example, they only ask for one document, however, in others, they may ask for multiple documents that each need to uploaded separately.
NOTE: if you are not submitting a document listed as required, you must still change the “submission option” to reflect the status.
Step 4 continued
TIP:
There is a place for you to add “Supplemental”, i.e. non-required, documents.
Step 5
Review Your E-Bid Response, and if everything is correct, then press “Submit Response”.
You are done! And the government to which you’ve submitted this will download your responses and documents (after the due date/time) and see the day and time upon which you submitted your proposal.
