September 13 2021 - 8:30AM
mdf commerce inc. (TSX:MDF), a leader in SaaS
commerce technology solutions, today announced the onboarding of
eight new agencies and municipalities to the Government of
Newfoundland and Labrador’s (GNL) merx electronic procurement
solution, strengthening its eprocurement leadership position in
North America. First launched in November 2020, the quick and
successful onboarding of additional agencies reinforces
mdf
commerce as a trusted partner for province-wide
eprocurement solutions, which will soon be enhanced with the
Periscope Holdings offering.
Since the onboarding of the GNL, more than 3,000
supplier organizations have accessed close to 900 solicitations
with more than 1,000 bids submitted via the electronic submission
option.
The end-to-end eprocurement platform offered by
mdf commerce effectively manages and is designed
to ensure that all bid opportunities from these agencies are
competitive, fair and transparent while complying with all required
public policies and legislation. Vendors benefit from self-serve
profile management capabilities, timely notifications and a
start-to-finish online submission. Virtual introductory sessions
are available on-demand for those new to the system.
The latest agencies that joined are:
- NL Provincial
Health Shared Services Supply Chain, the supply chain lead for all
commodities being sourced and undergoing contract on behalf of all
Regional Health Authorities (RHAs) and the Newfoundland and
Labrador Centre for Health Information (NLCHI).
- WorkplaceNL,
chief administrator of an employer-funded, no-fault workers’
compensation system.
- The College of
the North Atlantic, one of the largest post-secondary educational
and skills training systems in Atlantic Canada with 17 campuses
plus partner universities and technical colleges in China and
Qatar.
- Memorial University of Newfoundland
(MUN), one of the top 20 research universities in Canada,
representing 30 research centers, five campuses and more than
19,000 students. MUN, already a long-time mdf
commerce customer, expanded their use of e-solicitation
capabilities with the added efficiency of e-bidding.
New municipalities include:
- City of Corner Brook
- Town of Logy Bay-Middle Cove-Outer
Cove
- Town of Point Leamington
- Town of Carbonear
“By launching the new eprocurement system, we
are helping all suppliers do business with the Provincial
Government in a user-friendly environment,” said the Honourable
Derrick Bragg, Minister of Responsible for Public Procurement
Agency, Government of Newfoundland and Labrador.
"The continued adoption of the mdf
commerce eprocurement platform by a broad cross-section of
Newfoundland and Labrador public agencies, simplifies and improves
the ability for suppliers of all sizes to do business with the
province," said Mark Eigenbauer, President, eprocurement at
mdf commerce. "We are pleased to see the strong
results of our ongoing partnership with the Government of
Newfoundland and Labrador as they advance closer and closer to
their one source for procurement opportunities goal."
