Notices of the open post and bid period should be posted in each plant. The notice should include the bidding period (i.e., October 1 through October 30, 2003), the appropriate form in which the bid should be submitted, and the person/office responsible for accepting a bid (i.e., a specific name, employee's supervisor, personnel office, etc.).

Please note, those departments who received approval to use a departmental specific form during the 2002 negotiations may continue to use your form in place of the general Post and Bid form.
