Additionally, the state has issued a notice that all competitive solicitations, including Invitations for Bid (IFB) and Requests for Proposal (RFP), must be submitted electronically through the BidBuy portal, and any information sent outside of BidBuy will not be accepted or considered. For RFP submissions, vendors must utilize a Primary Bid number for the technical proposal and a Secondary Bid number for the pricing proposal to ensure that pricing remains "locked" until after the technical evaluations are completed.
