Solicitation Notifications

Please register as a supplier through the Utah Public Procurement Place (U3P) website to receive notifications about current and upcoming solicitations. Questions about the U3P registration process must be directed to the State’s Purchasing U3P Admin Team at sciquestadmin@utah.gov or on their website.

Registration as a supplier on U3P does not pre-qualify the supplier or guarantee notification of receipt of a solicitation. It is the responsibility of the supplier to check the notices posted on U3P.

The Utah Public Procurement Place is in the process of migrating to a new platform. More information will be sent through U3P notifications, emails, nd posted on the State of Utah Division of Purchasing’s website.
