State of Idaho Division of Purchasing continues its commitment to ePurchasing
Effective January 2007, the Division of Purchasing awarded a new contract to SicommNet for the State’s use of SicommNet’s award winning eProcurement system.
The State of Idaho has been using SicommNet’s eProcurement system since 2001 and has received national recognition from NASPO (National Association of State Procurement Officials) for its forward-looking purchasing practices.
What does this mean for Suppliers?
In the previous contract there had been a fee for service to suppliers. With the new contract there is no fee to use Idaho’s eProcurement system. EProcurement levels the playing field for Idaho businesses of all sizes by allowing businesses to receive, download and respond to bid opportunities via the internet. Supplier businesses define the products or services they provide in the online profile they create when they register. The electronic system then matches bid opportunities to suppliers based on the products or services in their profile — and suppliers automatically receive email notifications of these opportunities.
