2026-11-03

Knoxville Utilities Board ( KUB ) is searching for a vendor who can provide Autosys Support Renewal . This is a renewal with term dates of : 3 / 31 / 26 - 3 / 30 / 27In order to be considered a valid bid , vendor must be a small business enterprise . KUB defines a small business as a vendor who has 50 or fewer employees and has earned less than $ 10 million in annual revenue over the past calendar year . Vendor must also complete and attach the bid terms & conditions and sign the small business affidavit to their bid submission to be considered valid . KUB seeks to develop a stronger and more diverse local contractor and supplier pool to increase the number of business entities providing goods and services to KUB , increase competition for goods and services provided to KUB , support growth in the number of jobs and the tax base in our community , increase the usage of KUB utility services and develop local job skills that will be transferrable to other public and private entities across the area . To accomplish this goal , KUB has determined that it is appropriate to provide local business entities with a five percent ( 5 %) bidding preference for this project . The bidding preference will be applied after all bids have been received and opened . If a local small business enterprise has provided an otherwise qualifying bid with a price within five ( 5 ) percentage points of the otherwise lowest qualifying bid , the local business enterprise will be considered to have the lower monetary bid . This incentive shall apply only to monetary bids and shall have no effect on any other evaluated item in the bid or proposal . As defined in KUB ’ s Procurement Guidelines Article VI , a Small Business Enterprise is considered local if it is physically located within KUB ’ s service territory . See more
