Where do you get your leads? What are the sources of Find RFP? |
|
We maintain the most comprehensive database of government procurement sites,
including federal, state, city and local. Our database is updated on a daily
basis to include new government procurement sites as soon as they are
published. In addition to our active search, we receive direct postings from
both public agencies and private organizations.
We strive to be inclusive of all public agency procurement sites. However, it
is possible that we might miss some of them. If you have any doubt about
whether your favorite agency is covered in our database, please
email us with the URL or detailed information of the agencies. We
will make sure that it is included in our notification service. |
