Bids and Tenders

The Township of Springwater encourages a transparent and fair bidding process through our Procurement By-law.

As of May 1, we switched to bids&tenders to post bid opportunities. View our information sheet for details. 

Competitive bids

We advertise our bid opportunities through Biddingo, an electronic bidding platform that manages bids and tender documents online.
