This sample questionnaire includes templates for a bid sheet and a bid package checklist as guidance for a sourcing strategy.

Bid sheet components include bid information, a summary of bids, preferred vendor exceptions and awarded bid information. If any of the vendors are not listed on the preferred vendor list, an explanation should be provided in the preferred vendor exception section. The bid package checklist includes key elements in developing a bid package to be used in the competitive bidding policy, such as an introduction letter, specifications/scope of work, and terms and conditions.
