Q967
How do I tell the City about my business?

Interested parties should visit Room 128 to review the bid board, drop off information, and/or schedule a meeting with a Buyer.

If you are from a minority, female owned, or small business, consider becoming listed in the CSB/MBE/FBE/LGBTBE Registry which is a listing of all Certified CSB/MBE/FBE/LGBTBE Businesses. This registry is used by the Buyers to develop bid lists and also by contractors looking for subcontractors. Qualified vendors are urged to apply for this important certification.

Q767
How do I find out about current bids?

Invitations to Bid estimated at $50,000 or more can be seen in the City Record on Wednesdays and can also be seen here.

Invitations to Bid under $50,000 are posted online here and on the Bid Board in Room 128 in City Hall, and can be seen by the public from 8:00am to 5:00pm Monday through Friday.

Requests for Proposals can be seen here.

In addition, bids may be sent to you. Buyers have lists of eligible vendors which they issue bids to directly. City Departments are asked to suggest vendors for their purchases. Please note that there is no guarantee that you will always be notified of every opportunity. The primary responsibility rests with you to check the City Record, the Website and/or the Bid Board in Room 128 on a regular basis. We suggest that you check every week.

Q802
I am a City of Cleveland employee. How do I sign up for direct deposit?

Employees can sign up for direct deposit by completing an Authorization Agreement for Automatic Payroll Deposits also referred to as a direct deposit card. In order to complete the card, employees will need to supply their financial institution's name, routing information, account number and type. A deposit ticket or voided check should be attached to the direct deposit card if possible. This will help to ensure that the correct account information is input into the payroll system. The employee's signature, social security number and the current date are also required on the card.

Q782
I am a City of Cleveland employee. How do I change my direct deposit?

Direct deposit account information can be changed by submitting a new Authorization Agreement for Automatic Payroll Deposits (direct deposit card) with the new account information. Employees should write "bank/account change" at the top of the direct deposit card to assist Treasury in distinguishing a change in bank account information from a new setup. If funds are being directly deposited to more than one account, the card must clearly specify the account(s) to be changed. Employees should allow approximately one month for the change to take effect.
