Request for Quote (RFQ)

The CLRRA Administrative Policy governs how the General Manager and Board of Directors make purchases on behalf of the Association. Here is an excerpt:

• Any contracts for the Association or any expenditure over $2,500 for the purchase of a single item or service for the Association shall have competitive bids from three (3) suppliers, if possible. 
• These bids will be reviewed by CLRRA’s Board of Directors and the bid award must be approved by the Board and documented in Board minutes.
• The Board may approve a bid coming from less than 3 suppliers if a reasonable attempt was made to solicit at least 3 suppliers with the Request for Quote (RFQ).
• The RFQ shall be posted on the Association's website. In addition, it may be mailed or emailed to previously approved suppliers and/or any other interested parties.
