Wrightwood, Calif. - Sept 2, 2011 - The city of Emeryville, a small member of the East Bay’s Alameda County, is among the many cities now saving thousands of dollars each month by using CIPLIST.com. The free, online bidding service not only saves tax dollars but also saves paper in an effort to ease the bidding process on city and county projects.

California Law AB-2036 now requires municipalities to provide public works project plans at no cost. CIPLIST.com was created in conjunction with San Marcos and Rancho Cucamonga in response to this bill and is an efficient and environmentally responsible alternative to expensive and complicated bidding systems. There are absolutely no fees or hidden charges.

Valorie Maxwell, Administrative Secretary for the Emeryville Public Works Department, is thrilled with the results:

“Since directing all of our bidders to CIPLIST.com, I cannot tell you how much time and money it is saving the City of Emeryville. No longer is there a need to make copies of plans, fax, ship and resend information again for all of the addendums. The Bidders List is now organized, in one location and we are in control of loading the information. I am looking forward to less paperwork, more productivity and becoming greener along the way with CIPLIST.com.”

CIPLIST.com is intended to help streamline the process of public works planning by offering a free and centralized location for cities to post project plans for contractors to bid on. Some useful features include automatic updates for addendums and changes to project specs, time stamped verification, and automatic notifications for contractors of new project postings.
