Earlier this year, the Government of Nova Scotia announced its plan to implement an electronic bidding system.  We are pleased to advise E-bidding will launch in December 2017 to help support the procurement needs of all government departments, the Nova Scotia Health Authority (NSHA) and the IWK.

In addition to the training sessions and webinars held earlier this year, a guide and training videos have been developed for our supplier community and are available on the Nova Scotia website to assist with the transition to E-bidding.

Suppliers who attended our information sessions and those registered with TONS (Tender Opportunity Notification Service) will be receiving program launch details shortly. However, to ensure we reach as many suppliers as possible, we kindly ask that you circulate this information to your members.

If you have any questions about the improvements, please do not hesitate to send them to ariba@novascotia.ca
