Bid guide
How to bid on legal notice publishing for Douglas County Government
What Douglas County is buying
Douglas County Government is seeking qualified newspapers to publish its publicly and privately funded legal notices as needed during 2027. The IFB covers a one-year period beginning approximately January 1, 2027, with two one-year extension options.
The County may award separate parts of the work to multiple newspapers rather than choosing one provider for all publishing needs.
Key dates and the deadline
Questions are due October 30, 2026. The bid deadline is November 18, 2026, at 4:00 PM ET.
Submit your response through BidNet Direct, or as the notice directs, before the closing time. Plan to allow time to complete the submission; a response sent after the deadline may not be considered.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is for newspaper companies qualified under Colorado Revised Statute 24-70-103 to publish legal notices. It may suit newspapers that can handle publicly and privately funded notices on an as-needed basis.
Because the County may award separate components to multiple newspapers, a firm may consider which parts of the publishing work match its capabilities.
