PURPOSE

To assist external organizations that may be eager to partner with the City, Council adopted the Unsolicited Quotations or Proposals Policy at its meeting on June 19, 20 and 22, 2007. While the Policy provides guidance for those seeking to do business with the City outside of the conventional procurement system, it does not establish a definitive process through which such proposals may receive serious consideration. With this in mind, the following sets out a framework through which potential partners have an opportunity for their ideas to be presented and evaluated. Furthermore, the framework provides a formal mechanism for the disposition of all unsolicited quotations or proposals in a timely and conclusive manner.

POLICY

The Unsolicited Quotations or Proposals Policy as adopted by Council at its meeting of June 19, 20 & 22, 2007, Report 5, Clause 6 of the Government Management Committee.

PROCEDURE
