P/T Contract Templates and Forms are available here. There are various subsections identifying the type of templates and forms we have available, i.e. Certifications, Contracts, Request for Proposals, Evaluations, etc. Please use the most current ones available. We periodically make edits to our documents to help ensure the best terms for the State.
Your first point of contact should be your agency’s P/T Contract Coordinator. If your Contract Coordinator is unable to answer your question, your Contract Coordinator (or you) can reach out to the P/T team via email at PT.Contracts@state.mn.us.
SWIFT provides some Quick References Guides for procurement, available here.
Refer to the “Strategic Sourcing” guides to create a solicitation event in SWIFT, i.e. post your RFP opportunity.
Refer to the “Supplier Contract” guides to create a contract document in SWIFT.
ELM also provides some SWIFT trainings. There is currently a self-paced training called “SWIFT Strategic Sourcing eLearning” that may be helpful for creating solicitation events.
The P/T team is currently accepting certification forms, solicitations, and contract documents via DocuSign and SWIFT. If DocuSign or SWIFT does not work for your agency, please reach out to us at PT.Contracts@state.mn.us so we can work out another arrangement. The DocuSign Manual provides additional instructions on this process.
Email IT.Procurement@state.mn.us to request a DocuSign account. Please note that using DocuSign is not free. Your agency will be billed by MNIT on a monthly basis based on usage. Please reach out to MNIT for current rates.
The goal of the Evaluation Right Step Program is to promote the standardization of the evaluation process across State Agencies by increasing training and resources. For more information on the program click here.
P/T trainings are available here. You can sign up for most of the trainings on the ELM system. We also have a few on-demand trainings that are listed at the top of the page.
