The Public Solicitation Portal (PSP) is a bid advertisement portal designed to publicly advertise projects and inform vendors of upcoming and/or currently bidding projects.
For more information, including the organizations that advertise on this Public Solicitation Portal, please visit the Homepage and/or the Agencies chooser in Search Criteria.
The Public Solicitation Portal is open for the public to view at any time and is free of charge. A registration/login is not required. However, if you choose to bid on any of the advertised projects, you may be required to create a free vendor profile with the organization (if not already registered).
The Bid Detail page accessed by selecting a project from Search results contains limited information about the project. If you’re interested in learning more about a project, review the 'Description and Scope' section for instructions and/or links to the project.

Select the View Bid Detail in Portal link to view Line Items, Download Bid Documents, Order Hard Copy Plans, become a Prospective Bidder, view Addenda, Place eBid, etc. when applicable.
