Professional Auction Services

The Steuben County government authority in Bath, New York, is seeking professional technical expertise from an auctioneering firm to conduct the annual sale of the county's surplus and obsolete equipment. The agency is trying to optimize financial returns on these items through expert organization, marketing, and execution of the sale. The selected firm must provide a complete and accurate accounting of the sale and supply adequate, knowledgeable staff to prepare the surplus items directly at the county's auction site. The scope of work covers all components of conducting a successful auction sale, though the broader performance of the contract work will occur offsite. Only organizations based in the United States are eligible to bid on this opportunity. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is looking for bidders to submit pricing proposals. Interested firms must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 16, 2026. The agency will evaluate bidders based on their ability to organize, market, and conduct the sale, as well as their staffing capacity and accounting accuracy.
