Bids, Tenders & Procurement

The Town of Pelham bid / tender opportunities process is one of the ways the Town provides a fair, open, and transparent procurement process.

Through these posted opportunities, the Town ensures that the corporation is obtaining the best value for goods and services for the taxpayer while protecting the Town’s financial interests. The process also encourages competitive Bidding in accordance with applicable treaties such as Canadian Free Trade Agreement and Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement.

The Town of Pelham procurement policy outlines the framework that town staff follow when procuring goods and services.

The Town frequently purchases goods and services from vendors through an electronic bidding system. The online system allows businesses to search for open, closed and awarded bid opportunities.

For support with our electronic bidding system bids&tenders™, please email support@bidsandtenders.ca or visit their vendor support portal. You can also set up an account and sign up for upcoming bids&tenders vendor webinars.

 

From time to time, the Town of Pelham may deem equipment or other goods as surplus, and the items are disposed of via online auction.

Items are sold “as is” and “where is” and there is no warranty or guarantee.
