Tips for Vendors
The Centralized Master Bidding List (CMBL) is your contact list to state agency purchasers.
- Keep the information on your profile current. If your contact person, address, phone or fax numbers change, update your profile at the Comptroller's Purchasing Page.
- Very Important: Make sure you have an updated email address on your profile as most notices of bid solicitations are distributed electronically.
- Carefully choose which commodity code class and item numbers you select for your profile so that the state agency solicitations you receive most closely match the goods and services that your business offers.
TRS seeks quality vendors who can fulfill the agency’s needs in a timely and efficient manner at a competitive price.
- Be certain you have provided all the required documentation.
- Make certain to sign your bid or proposal or it could be considered non-responsive.
- Your response must be received by TRS on time – no exceptions.
- Respond to phone calls from TRS in a timely manner.
- Keep lines of communication open with TRS staff.
- If delivery deadlines cannot be met in the timeline specified, let TRS staff know as soon as possible.
- Meet specifications or statement of work as written in the Contract or Purchase Order.
