Depending on the amount of the purchase, SWDA uses various types of buying mechanisms as follows:

  • Informal Bids I ($1,000 - $3,000)
    • Quotations from a minimum of three vendors obtained verbally or in writing. (All must be documented/attached to the Purchase Order).
  • Informal Bids II ($3,001 - $10,000)
    • Quotations from a minimum of three vendors obtained verbally/emailed or in writing. (All must be documented/attached to the Purchase Order).
  • Informal Bids III ($10,001 - $29,999)
    • Three written quotations. (All must be documented/attached to the Purchase Order).
  • Formal Bids ($30,000 or more) & all Capital Projects
    • The Purchasing Agent may advertise, if deemed necessary, on the SWDA website, and/or in a local newspaper of general circulation to obtain good competition. Notice of bids for commodities/services are sent to all Vendors on the Bidders List.
