Survey
The following survey was sent to vendors registered in the Oracle (Supplier system who were notified of the
business opportunity.
The above referenced solicitation was advertised on January 11, 2016. The due date was February 10,
2016. The solicitation did have any minimum requirements; however, these would not preclude firms from
responding that were regularly engaged in the concession service business.
Due to the lack of participation, Procurement reached out to the some of the identified firms to determine
whether barriers existed in their decision not to compete. For example:
1. My firm was unable to meet the timeline for proposal due date.
2. My firm did not have enough time to ask the City questions necessary to complete the RFP.
3. Not enough information in the Scope of Services.
4. Not Interested.
