What is BidNet Direct?

State and local government agencies throughout New York State, including City of Glen Cove, utilize
BidNet Direct for distribution of solicitations - including documents and addendum, vendor management
and award management. Many participating agencies also utilize the electronic bid submission option
for vendors to submit responses directly online through the platform. In addition, our content team of
researchers visits thousands of agency websites, newspapers and other locations to aggregate open
solicitations from non-participating agencies to alert registered vendors of matching opportunities.

Free registration will allow you to access documents, respond to electronic bids and more; however, you

Both the Group and the Statewide options will provide you automated notifications of participating
agency matching bids and, additionally, all statewide matching government bids.
