Municipal Research and Services Center (MRSC) Rosters is a shared statewide small public works and consultant roster service used by Washington local public agencies, including Mason County, as a shared website database public agency members use their own individual agency small public works roster and consultant roster, hosted within the database.
Mason County will no longer maintain Small Works and Consultant rosters separate from those provided by MRSC.
For Contractors and Consultants
MRSC Rosters is a convenient and cost-effective way for marketing services to Agencies statewide through only one registration process.
Operated by the not-for-profit Municipal Research & Services Center of Washington (MRSC), the MRSC Rosters is a fee-based service for all participants charged annually; however Contractors and Consultants do have a free option to register for individual Agency rosters.
Additional Information
What is MRSC Rosters?
MRSC Rosters is an online shared contractor roster and consultant roster for local Washington State governments/agencies (counties, cities, fire districts, school districts and other special districts) to maintain, search for and solicit bids from contractors eligible to bid on small public works projects (projects $300,000 and under) and to solicit work from consultants. As a shared roster system, MRSC Rosters provide agencies with access to a current contractor and consultant list, while at the same time allowing contractors and consultants to market their services to multiple agencies in one application process.
Advantages of MRSC Rosters

How does it work?
MRSC accepts and processes electronic applications from contractors and consultants and checks them for compliance with the new mandatory bidder responsibility criteria.
Once a contractor/consultant is verified, their account is activated and participating agencies are able to search for a contractor/consultant by service category or alphabetical listing.
After generating an email list of potential bidders, the agencies can send out requests for proposals.
To fulfill Washington State statutory requirements, MRSC will advertise on behalf of all participating agencies in the Daily Journal of Commerce, indicating that they are using the MRSC Rosters.
