The State of New Hampshire is enhancing our statewide vendor database to make it easier to do business with the State. These changes include a new Supplier Portal that will allow vendors to register for a supplier number, update and maintain their company information, submit their bids and proposals electronically, and view all posted bids or proposals by any state agency utilizing the web portal.
To make things easier for the transition, SoNH will be importing your current vendor information into the new Supplier Portal and creating the supplier numbers. To do this on your behalf we will need a contact name, first and last, an email address best suited for receiving bid solicitations, preferably a generic email not a personal email address, and a business phone number. Please visit our current online vendor registration site, or submit an updated alternate W-9 form to receive your supplier number and utilize the new Supplier Portal when it goes live.
Currently, bid and contract postings are found on our Bureau of Purchase and Property webpage; these pages will continue to be utilized. Postings for DHHS can be found here, this page will also continue to be utilized. In the future, items related to procurement activities that are currently submitted to the Department of Administrative Services, the Department of Information Technology, and the Department of Health and Human Services, either physically, by e-mail, or fax, will be submitted electronically via the Supplier Portal. These changes will not impact bids submitted to other State agencies until further notice.
These new features are expected to be available Summer of 2020. SoNH will be providing you updated information as we move forward with these upgrades. If you have any questions please reach out to us at prch.web@das.nh.gov or 603-271-2201 and we will be happy to answer your questions. Our office hours are Monday through Friday 8am to 4:30pm.
