About Bid Opportunities & Online Vendor Registration

Granbury ISD utilizes an electronic bidding system called Ionwave. This system allows vendors to identify the classifications/categories of goods or services your company provides.   It also allows the district to receive electronic bid and proposal submissions.  Your company will link to the Ionwave site through the Granbury ISD site.  When the district posts a bid or proposal opportunity, you will receive an email notification.  This registration is not intended to add a vendor to the approved vendor list, but to make sure all those that desire to be a part of the process get notified of bid opportunities.  Vendor approval status is based on the awarding of bids and proposals. Submittal of the Supplier Registration does not imply or guarantee to the submitter the receipt of any invitation to bid or request of proposal released. 
 
If you wish to be notified of bid or proposal opportunities, click on the link below.  There is no charge to register.
 

When entering the company Tax ID number, do not enter any dashes, only numeric. All information can be submitted electronically. It is not necessary to print any forms and fax to the purchasing department. 

It will be the sole responsibility of each vendor to maintain and keep current their company's information on the district's e-bidding site.  In the event of a contact person name change, address, phone, etc., it will be necessary for the vendor to edit their company information on the e-bidding site.  
 
Passwords can be reset by using the "Forgot your Password" function.  If the original user is no longer associated with your organization, then contact Granbury ISD's Purchasing staff at 817.408.4015.  It is understood that all bid notifications will be sent to the e-mail address on file, it is imperative that the vendor information be kept current.  Otherwise, bid notifications will never be received by the vendor and the opportunity for bid submittal will be lost.
 
Notice:  Granbury ISD reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids or proposals, to waive any technicalities, and to make awards in the best interest of the district.  Should addendums be needed to clarify any terms, condition, specifications of the bid or proposal, they will be sent via the electronic bidding system.  The vendor is to only solicit information and instructions from the Granbury ISD purchasing staff. No Granbury ISD board member, department director or employee is to be contacted during the bid or proposal process.
