The City of Dacono announced today that it has joined the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, a regional purchasing group that helps local governments post, distribute, and manage RFPs, quotes, addendums and awards online. Bidnet Direct’s Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System provides notification to registered vendors of new relevant solicitations, any addenda and award information from over 350 participating agencies across Colorado and Wyoming. All potential City of Dacono vendors are encouraged to register online with www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado/cityofdacono to access upcoming solicitations.
The City of Dacono joined the purchasing group in August 2022. In joining, the City of Dacono has become the 352nd participating local government agency utilizing the system to streamline the purchasing process. The Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System is a single, online location for managing sourcing information and activities and provides local Colorado and Wyoming government agencies a method to minimize costs and time delays associated with the procurement process. The City of Dacono was distributing bids and managing the procurement process manually before joining the system. In joining, the City of Dacono looks to save time, increase competition, and achieve cost savings over the traditional paper-based bid process.
The City of Dacono now has access to an extensive vendor pool, thereby enhancing competition without increasing distribution costs. In addition to the existing vendors on the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, all vendors looking to respond to bids with local government agencies can register online: www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado/cityofdacono. The City of Dacono invites all current vendors not already registered on the purchasing group to do so today. Vendor registration is easy and takes only a few minutes online.
Registered vendors can access bids, related documents, addendum, and award information. In addition, the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System offers a value-added service to notify vendors of new bids targeted to their industry, all addenda associated with those bids and advance notice of term contract expiration. A robust NIGP code category list allows vendors registering to find the correct codes and receive matched bids.
By using the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, valued vendors can have access to open bids from specific agencies, and from other municipalities, counties and school districts throughout Colorado and Wyoming. In addition to the time savings, vendors will also benefit from registering in one location for all local bid opportunities.
Vendors may register on the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System: www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado. Bidnet Direct’s vendor support team is available to answer any questions regarding the registration process or the bid system at 800-835-4603 option 2.
Other local Colorado and Wyoming government agencies looking to switch from a manual bid process, please contact the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System for a demonstration of the no-cost sourcing solution.
About the City of Dacono:
Small town friendly. Big city connections.
Established in 1908, we are a friendly community with small-town charm. While we are ready to transform and embrace growth, we intend to maintain our core values. We are a place where neighbors are friends and friends are family. We are a close-knit, growing, and vibrant community.
A lot has changed throughout our 109-year history, and a 21st century Dacono finds itself with great anticipation in the heart of a thriving Colorado economy and the midst of one of Colorado's fastest-growing counties.
We are right around the corner.
Centrally located and adjacent to I-25, we are 10 miles north of Denver, 44 miles south of Fort Collins, 28 miles northwest of Denver International Airport (DIA), and 21 miles northeast of Boulder. A quick trip around for work, travel, shopping, entertainment, arts, culture, recreation, and school.
For shopping and dining, you will find The Orchard Town Center offering everything from restaurants to burgers, Larkridge Shopping Center featuring an outdoor pedestrian mall, the Grove, with Cabela's as its anchor, and Furniture Row all about 15 minutes away.
By the numbers.
Located in southwest Weld County, with a growing population of 6,250 residents, Dacono is in one of the fastest-growing counties in the State of Colorado. We encompass nearly 9 square miles and foresee future growth that will expand our boundaries to 22 square miles. With climate that is cool and dry and an average of 242 days of sunshine each year, we boast pleasant daytime conditions even in the winter. The median home value is $266,000 compared to more than $497,000 in Boulder County, making Dacono an excellent value. Housing options range from starter to high-end and everything in between.
