City Partners with eBridge to Keep Police Force Safe

Purchases bullet-proof doors for police fleet vehicles

In order to keep the police force safe, the city purchased vehicle ballistic door panels for the fleet of crown vic police interceptors. 

The three participating suppliers placed 66 bids and the clock extended 44 times, keeping the bid competitive for over an hour while the suppliers fought to win the bid.

The event yielded a low bid 45% below the budgeted amount for the door panels.  The city was thrilled with the reverse auction process as well as the quality of vendors eBridge brought to the table.  Another successful bid for our customers!
