Doing Business

1. What is a sourcing event?: A sourcing event is a request for a bid, information, proposal or other solicitation we choose to make available over our web portal. An event might have many lines, and you may bid on (respond to) any or all lines. We usually establish terms and conditions specific to each event, which you must agree to before responding. We may also attach questions to an event, which are sometimes required for all who respond to the event.

2. How can I find events to respond to?: Anyone viewing our portal can browse open sourcing events to see an events list.

If you have registered and are logged in, you can receive emails that notify you immediately when an event is released. To sign up for this, select Update Account Information to select commodity codes that your company supplies. Also make sure you have provided a current email address and selected to receive emails from us. When an event is released to our web portal that matches the commodity codes you have set up, you (and your proxy, if you have one) may be notified by email. If allowed by our policy, our purchasing staff may also choose to make an event visible to you and other selected suppliers that is not visible to everyone who visits our website.
