Faster, Easier, and Compliant Solicitations?
Yes, Please.

OpenGov Procurement’s industry-leading solution has revolutionized eRFx assembly, whether starting from scratch, piggybacking off templates from our publicly shared solicitation library, or leveraging our built-in national cooperative search feature. Drastically reduce the onboarding of new departmental buyers; it’s so guided and easy to use that first time users are able to build solicitations on their own, even using their mobile device.

"We totally need an OpenGov 'easy button' because it’s so easy to use. We are literally in love, if you can love software."

“Before OpenGov our team hated the back and forth using Word documents, assembling RFPs and manually tabulating. I bet you OpenGov Procurement has cut our sourcing time in half.”

“A new hire did an entire solicitation on her first try; the software allows us to do this, you don’t need to be tech-savvy.”

"We love it! The system is simple to use, as it takes our buyers step by step through the process each time."
