How to register, step by step

  1. 01

    Register on MyMarketplace vendor subscription service

    Start registration. Cost: Free. Register through the subscription portal and pick business categories to get email alerts for RFPs, ITBs and RFIs. The state's Selling to the State Guide also directs vendors to register in the eSupplier portal and get a Delaware business license where required.[2]

  2. 02

    Have your Delaware business license

    Vendors may need a Delaware Business License as identified by the Division of Revenue, and must meet minimum insurance requirements.[3]

  3. 03

    Have your Bonfire account (when required)

    If a solicitation requires Bonfire submission you must register there to bid; Bonfire registration has no cost.[4]

  4. 04

    Choose your commodity codes

    Notifications are sent by the codes in your vendor profile. Pick every code that describes your work, and revisit them when you add a service.

  5. 05

    Get certified if you qualify

    Office of Supplier Diversity Certification (Diverse Business / Small Business), through the Delaware Office of Supplier Diversity. Diverse Business covers firms 51% owned by women, minorities, veterans, service-disabled veterans or individuals with disabilities; Small Business uses industry size limits.[5]

  6. 06

    Watch the other buyers

    Cities, counties and authorities in Delaware post on their own sites, so check the ones you want to sell to.

What you will typically need

Exact requirements vary by portal; the registration page linked above is the authority. Most ask for:

  • Your legal business name and address exactly as registered with the state, and your federal tax ID (EIN, or SSN for some sole proprietors).
  • A signed IRS Form W-9, which most buyers collect before they can pay you.
  • Commodity codes (NIGP, UNSPSC or NAICS, depending on the portal) for every product and service you sell.
  • A contact who will receive bid notices, plus any business license or registration the jurisdiction requires.
  • Certificates of insurance and, for construction, bonding capacity: these are usually requested per bid rather than at registration.

When a formal bid is required

Formal bids are required at $100,000 and over for materiel and non-professional services, $250,000 and over for public works, and a formal RFP at $150,000 and over for professional services.[6]

Tips

  • School districts and municipalities post on a separate Poli-Subs bid list, and under-threshold buys go through agency procurement contacts.
  • For professional services quotes, the state requires at least one quote be sought from a certified diverse vendor.
