The document outlines the new process for construction bid site visits implemented by the Procurement Division in response to the challenges posed by the Coronavirus pandemic. The City aims to continue issuing solicitations and construction bids for critical projects while ensuring the safety of City staff and suppliers' employees. The traditional pre-solicitation meetings and site visits have been modified to comply with government guidelines. The new process involves an application phase, review of applications, promotion to the offer phase, and scheduling of site visits with limited attendees. The City believes this new process will enable them and their suppliers to conduct necessary business safely during these unprecedented times.
