Requests For Proposals (RFP) and Invitations For Bids (IFB)

These opportunities include contracts with and without small business goals.

We try to ensure that information about contracts is current and accurate. However, the only information to be relied upon for a contract solicitation is the information that is distributed to persons listed with the Met Council as plan holders for that solicitation.
