Direct solicitations in bidding refer to the process where a buyer or organization reaches out directly to specific vendors or suppliers, inviting them to submit bids or proposals for a project. This method is often used when the buyer has a list of preferred or qualified suppliers, ensuring that those invited to bid have the necessary capabilities to meet the project’s requirements. Unlike open bidding, where any qualified vendor can participate, direct solicitations streamline the process by targeting a select group, allowing for faster decision-making and potentially better alignment with the buyer’s needs. However, it can limit competition and transparency if not managed carefully.
