Doing Business

The Volusia Sheriff's Office has transitioned to an online bid platform powered by Mercell, which is completely free for all participants. Vendors seeking to do business with the Sheriff's Office are required to register on the platform. All solicitations, addenda, changes, and other publicly released information will be released through Mercell Source-to-Contract.

Registration with Mercell is free and is required prior to submitting a bid response. You can register at https://app.negometrix.com/registration.

Vendors already registered with Mercell to receive solicitations from another agency do not need to register again. When registering, ensure that an active email is included and that all NIGP commodity codes are selected for the goods in services offered by the vendor in which the vendor is interested as a supplier. When a new solicitation is issued, vendors listing commodity codes related to the solicitation will be notified through email.

You can find all current bids at: https://app.negometrix.com/buyer/10428

Firms are required to submit their bids and proposals electronically. Vendors will not be permitted to fax or email offers, unless specified in the solicitation package. To maintain a secure sealed process, electronic submissions must be made through the Mercell platform only. Vendors who obtain solicitations from sources other than Mercell are cautioned that information may be incomplete. Vendors interested in a specific solicitation should register at least 24 hours in advance of the due date to ensure proper registration.
