Use of eBid eXchange Contributes to Green Program Initiatives

Originally conceived as a solution for “paperless contracting”, eBid eXchange has gathered momentum as a part of customer programs to reduce environmental impacts. In addition to the direct cost and labor savings from using an online vendor management, sourcing, and contract management solution, use of an online communications portal like eBid eXchange can make a significant contribution to the reduction in resource consumption. Particularly for notoriously paper-intensive construction projects, eBid eXchange can help achieve the following reductions in resource consumption:

  • Promote electronic dissemination of information and reduce or eliminate production of paper documents and associated binding materials.
  • Eliminate the fuel consumption involved in transportation and delivery of hard copy documents.

Additionally, eBid Systems is considering offering streaming video services for procurement-related meetings, such as pre-bid meetings and official bid openings, to eliminate the need for transportation and physical attendance at meetings.

eBid Systems is committed to helping its clients realize the goals of their green programs. Look for future news releases in which we will present case studies in green program benefits.
