2010 – 2011 City of Buying Plan and Vendor Resource Guide

CITY OF CHICAGO Richard M. Daley, Mayor

DEPARTMENT OF PROCUREMENT SERVICES Jamie L. Rhee, Chief Procurement Officer City of Chicago Buying Plan and Vendor Resource Guide

Dear Vendor:

Thank you for your interest in the City of Chicago’s Buying Plan and Vendor Resource Guide for 2010–2011. Each quarter the City of Chicago will update this buying plan with new contract opportunities.

The Buying Plan identifies the types of goods and services that the City will be seeking over the next 12 months, while the Vendor Resource Guide provides information necessary to participate effectively and successfully in contracting with the City of Chicago. Contact information, checklist for bids, web alerts and links to other sources of information are included to assist you in identifying and pursuing the opportunities that are right for you.

Everyone involved in the City’s procurement process, from the User Departments to the Department of Procurement Services, is committed to open, transparent and fair contract- ing processes. Whether that effort involves revamping our specifications to make our requirements easier to understand, reaching out to primes and subcontractors to assist them in forging working relationships, streamlining the procurement process to get contracts in place more quickly, or improving our contract administration so that you get paid promptly and completely, we are working hard to keep your participation and trust.

We hope that you will use the Buying Plan and Vendor Resource Guide, and choose to become involved in the business of the City of Chicago. Thank you in advance for your time and good work, and for helping make our City a better place to live and raise families.

Richard M. Daley, Mayor
