FAQ

Common Questions

Answers to what firms ask most about working with GEDC.

Who can respond to a GEDC RFP?

Any qualified firm can respond unless the RFP states otherwise. Requirements specific to each project are listed in the RFP notice.

Do I need to be on the vendor list to submit?

No. Anyone can respond to an open RFP. The vendor list simply makes sure you hear about new opportunities as soon as they are posted.

How are proposals evaluated?

Each RFP lists its own evaluation criteria. GEDC reviews every proposal against those criteria.

What is GEDC’s policy on local vendor support or preference?

We prefer to work with businesses in our local and regional community whenever we can. Location is one factor, not the only one. We put a priority on quality of work and service, and we look for value and competency over the lowest price.

Can I ask questions before I submit?

Yes. Use the question form on the RFP page before the questions deadline. Answers are posted for everyone under RFP Updates and sent directly to the vendor list.

Will I hear back if I’m not selected?

All applicants will receive an update when a vendor has been selected.
