Selecting the Letting for Bidder/Quoter Information

Bidders are vendors that have collected quotes from subcontractors, suppliers, truckers, or brokers for a bid in the bid letting. Quoters are vendors that have submitted quotes as subcontractors, suppliers, truckers, or brokers to a potential bidder in a bid letting.

To access the Bidder/Quoter Overview component, click the Bidder Quoter link on the Civil Rights & Labor Non-Agency component. To enter or make changes to bidder/quoter information on a proposal, you must first locate the letting and bidder in the Bidder Quoter Overview list.
