Whether you are analyzing a solicitation, researching a part number, or recording a placed bid in your personal bid history database, GovPurchase is a research tool that will save you time and increase sales.

With your username and password, we create your custom profile using relevant National Stock Numbers, FSCs, keywords, NAICS codes, and competitive CAGEs. You will then receive daily solicitation matches based on your customized user profile. These matches are unique to your company’s search criteria.

You can also search all general solicitations by National Stock Number Search and access who manufactures the part, its availability, technical information, procurement history, prints/manuals in which that NSN is included, interchangeability & substitution for the National Stock Number, sales history and opportunities based on the National Stock Number and its management data.
