The CHARO Small Business BidCenter is an electronic bid and response system provides access of the vendor base to the private sector diversity supplier programs in order to enhance procurement opportunities. Two systems are available, the BidCenter Marketplace and the BidCenter PurchaseNet.
The BidCenter
Marketplace is an online community of buyers and suppliers. All transactions
are completed electronically through the Internet. The goal of the Marketplace
is to provide companies and government entities an opportunity to purchase
goods and services from minority owned businesses. However, the Marketplace
is not limited to minorities. Any company can register to buy and/or sell
their goods on BidCenter Marketplace.
With BidCenter Marketplace, paperless transactions and convenient purchasing are a reality and ensure a more efficient, cost-effective procurement process for buyers who enjoy the ease of catalog shopping.
BidCenter
PurchaseNet
uses a bid and response system that encourages competition for business
transactions. Looking for a vendor? Describe your needs and let various
diverse companies compete for your business.
As a buyer
you describe exactly what products you need for your business, and suppliers
targeted by you send you their competing offerings. You sit back and watch
the offers roll in. Then, choose to do business that best meets your needs.
It's that easy. BidCenter PurchaseNet
will also allow you to locate vendors who provide specific services.
