Kershaw County continues to look for cost-saving measures after the success of a reverse auction last fall for the bulk purchase of paper. The county ordinarily uses a sealed bid process to obtain goods and services from companies, but through the use of reverse auctions, companies must compete in a bidding process online to obtain contracts with the county. The county worked with eBridge, a Kentucky-based company, during the reverse auction for the bulk paper.
