Southern Mississippi is capable of receiving electronic bid responses. While this option is
a vailable, it is not required, and we ask that all potential respondents keep in mind that with any
electronic system there could be delays or glitches with the submission process; therefore, the
University highly encourages traditional sealed bids which are either mailed or submitted in
person. Should a vendor choose to submit their response electronically, please follow the
instructions below using the following website:
https://www.ms.gov/dfa/contract_bid_search/Home/Sell. On this site you will find helpful links
to procurement opportunities, as well as a link to supplier registration. If not already registered
in this system, potential bidders will first need to click on ‘Supplier Registration’ and follow the
s teps outlined (a one-time process). Once registered, they can return to the original website and
click on ‘Procurement Opportunities’ where they can either search by keyword for the bid they
d esire to respond to or leave the search box blank and click ‘Search’ for a listing of all current bids
