<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">About Our Program</span></span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">NYSWDA solicitations assist Weatherization subgrantees and NYSERDA low-income residential programs in obtaining bulk purchase pricing benefits while maintaining the quality of materials used in weatherization services.</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Pricing established by this program is effective for one year unless otherwise noted. Bid is open to vendors approximately two months prior to the bid cycle start date.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><strong><span style="line-height: 115%;">Bid Type</span></strong><span style="line-height: 115%;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong>Solicitation Open</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong>Annual Bid Cycle</strong></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">NYSWDA uses a web based electronic software package called BidSync. For instructions on how to access BidSync and create an account please download the documentation available below. Once an account has been created, vendors can search for “NYSWDA” bids. Additionally, the BidSync system automatically matches your classification code with upcoming bids and sends you a notice via email or fax.</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">In order to participate in NYSWDA bids, vendors will be required to review instructions, terms &amp; conditions, general specs and warranty and delivery requirements, complete appropriate documents, and enter their bid. Vendors will also have the opportunity to ask questions regarding the bid through a Q&amp;A section within BidSync. Once complete, vendors print hard copies and supporting documents to send directly to NYSWDA. Vendors are notified of the bid release by email, if you wish to be added to our list contact <a href="mailto:rvisser@nyswda.org">rvisser@nyswda.org</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">NYSWDA encourages participation in all our bids by MWBEs and small businesses. NYS MWBEs must be registered with the Empire State Development Corporation. NYSWDA strongly encourages out of state MWBEs to become certified with NYS as well. If your company is not currently certified, contact NYSWDA. We can help with this process.</span><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"></span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Still have questions??&nbsp;Email <a href="mailto:rvisser@nyswda.org">rvisser@nyswda.org</a> or call Lila Laguna&nbsp;at 518-690-0494.</span></p>]]></description>
