Current Solicitations

ARBuy

The State of Arkansas is implementing a new eProcurement system called ARBuy. ARBuy will transform the procure-to-pay process for all State departments, support local government purchasing, and allow suppliers to do business with Arkansas and its subdivisions more efficiently.

How will things change for potential bidders and offerors?

  • All persons who wish to receive notice of and participate in solicitations will need to register in ARBuy. There is no cost to register.
  • Suppliers will receive solicitation notifications through ARBuy and respond to those solicitations through the system.
  • If a supplier is awarded a Statewide contract, they will upload the contract catalog to ARBuy Marketplace for shopping and purchasing.

To register for notice of opportunities to participate in solicitations, please navigate to ARBuy (arkansas.gov) and click on the Register button in the upper right hand side of the screen. To review active solicitations conducted by the TSS Office of State Procurement, please navigate to State of Arkansas - Open Bids.

Information regarding solicitations that are being posted for other Departments or procurement units (or were initiated before the State's transition to ARBuy), is provided below.

It is the vendor's responsibility to check for amendments to ensure receipt of all changes to bid documents. All times and dates listed are based upon Daylight Savings Time.
