Bidders List

Regional Bid Notification System

The County of Putnam utilizes a shared bidder’s list with over 25 local governments in the Hudson Valley. The Hudson Valley Municipal Purchasing Group (HVMPG) is a group of municipal agencies located in New York’s Hudson Valley Region that joined forces in 2002 to create a Regional Bid Notification System to allow easy access to bid and contract opportunities.

Over 2000 local government contracting opportunities are posted on this system on an annual basis.

Local Businesses can now gain access to all HVMPG participating agencies contracting opportunities from a single website. This system provides instant access to the Purchasing Department’s Bids, RFP’s, Quotes, Amendments and Awards online. Local government agencies from Rockland, Orange, Ulster, Dutchess, Putnam, and Westchester utilize this system.

Vendor Registration Options

Vendors that would like access to contracting opportunities from agencies using this system have two options when registering. Businesses should compare both options and determine which is best for their company.

Free Registration – there is no charge for businesses to register and gain access to contracting opportunities. Businesses who select the free registration option have access to the site 24 hours a day, seven days per week. Businesses can search by each municipal agency to determine what contracting opportunities are currently available and download the bidding documents from the system.

E-mail Notification – Businesses can receive instant alerts by e-mail for all formal Bids and RFP’s, all Quotes and all Amendments. There is a $49.95 annual fee for automatic e-mail notifications. This fee is hundreds of dollars less than most Bid Service Bureaus charge and is considerably less than paying for newspaper subscriptions to search for Public Notices of contracting opportunities.

The Regional Bid Notification System is operated by BidNet on behalf of the participating agencies. If you need assistance when registering, please contact BidNet at 800-677-1997. BidNet provides all technical and vendor support for the HVMPG system and will be happy to assist you at any time.
