How does the SicommNet e-procurement system benefit public agencies?
SicommNet saves agencies money while making its purchasing practices more open and accessible. the BaSEC solution eliminates the cost, paperwork and time involved in contracting. The current method of awarding contracts less than $25,000 involves soliciting offers by phone or fax, a time-consuming and sometimes unfair practice. By using SicommNet’s BaSEC system, agencies are spared the time to solicit offers under the current method as registered businesses are automatically notified whenever the agency submits and/or updates an online solicitation.
