FedBid.com has developed an on-line, anonymous, browser based application to conduct the reverse auction. Vehicle specifications are provided on FedBid.com. During the reverse auction, participants may submit a series of quotes, which descend in price during the specified period of time. All responsible sources must submit a quote to the EPA using the online exchange located at www.fedbid.com. NO OFFLINE QUOTES WILL BE ACCEPTED. There is no cost to register, review procurement data or make an offer online. Offerors that are not currently registered to use FedBid.com Exchange should proceed to http:www.fedbid.com to complete their registration.

The government is taking this action in an effort to improve vendor access and awareness of requests while expediting its ability to gather multiple, competed, real-time quotes for products. Offerors may not artificially manipulate the price of a transaction by any means. It is unacceptable to place bad faith bid, to use decoys in the bidding process or to collude with the intent or effect of hampering the competitive bidding process.
