A Midwestern state’s water district engaged BidBridge for the purchase of two water treatment chemicals. The bid was comprised of four line items, with pricing segmented out for a 6 month and 1 year contracts for each. The chemicals included ferric sulfate and hydrofluorosilicic acid.
Seven suppliers placed a total of 31 lowering bids over the course of the one hour, 58 minute event. The final overall pricing for the event yielded a 21% savings versus budget.
The buying organization was thrilled with the pricing and is slated to run several more events through BidBridge reverse auction process in the near future.
