Novation Bid Calendar
Novation supports a competitive bid process. To become a Novation supplier you must register to receive an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for a product category. To view the categories/products that Novation has scheduled to open for bid, you will need to review Novation’s Bid/Proposal Calendar.
The Bid/Proposal Calendar presents an overview of the product categories scheduled to be bid by Novation. The bid calendar is usually projected for the current and following quarters. Due to changes in the healthcare environment, suppliers should review the bid calendar often for additions and changes. The bid calendar is an electronic document. You must register on line for the bid that you want to receive. Upon successful completion of your registration you will receive a confirmation number. The contact information for the portfolio executive that is responsible for that Invitation To Bid is listed on the bid calendar. If you have questions about that category, you may contact that person.
Thank you for your interest in becoming a Novation contracted supplier. If you have additional questions, you may contact Novation technical support at novationtechsupport@novationco.com or call (800) 327-8116. |
