Small Works, Vendors and Consultant Rosters

Municipal Research and Services Center (MRSC) Rosters is an online Small Public Works Contractor, Vendor and Consultant Services Roster for local governments in Washington, including Alderwood Water & Wastewater District.

Alderwood Water & Wastewater District will no longer maintain Small Works, Vendor and Consultant rosters separate from those provided by MRSC.

Why Does Alderwood Water & Wastewater Use MRSC Rosters?

Because using MRSC Rosters:

• Promotes efficiency in government
• Provides a single application process for contractors, vendors and consultants to register with multiple agencies
• Allows agencies to share costs
• Reduces individual agency staffing needs
• Provides access to a much larger pool of contractors, vendors and consultants
• Allows ease of electronic search and notification
• Provides more bids from qualified contractors/consultants

How does it work?

1. MRSC accepts and processes electronic applications from contractors and consultants and checks them for compliance with the new mandatory bidder responsibility criteria.

• Once a contractor/consultant is verified, their account is activated and participating agencies are able to search for a contractor/consultant by service category or alphabetical listing.

• After generating an email list of potential bidders, the agencies can send out requests for proposals.

• To Fulfill Washington State statutory requirements, MRSC will advertise on behalf of all participating agencies in the Daily Journal of Commerce, indicating that they are using the MRSC Rosters.
