How to register to bid in Colorado
- Where to register
- ColoradoVSS (Colorado Vendor Self Service)
- Cost to register
- Free (\"no start-up cost or annual fees\")
- Where Colorado posts bids
- prd.co.cgiadvantage.com
Per the ColoradoVSS "New Vendor Registration" instructions:
- Go to the ColoradoVSS site and choose to sign up.
- Review and accept the Memorandum of Agreement, then read the Registration Tips.
- Create your user account and verify your email with the code sent to you.
- Search for an existing account by TIN (or last 4 of SSN) and legal name so you don't create a duplicate.
- Enter account information: organization type, TIN, company name, tax address.
- Enter primary address, primary contact, and business information/locations.
- Add commodity/service codes and business types (you can do this later).
- Review the summary and submit. You'll get a vendor code.
- Wait for approval. The Central Approval team runs an IRS TIN match, which "can take up to 5 days." You'll get an email when it's approved or told why it wasn't.
Foreign (non-US) vendors have separate instructions on the VSS site.
What to have ready
- Taxpayer ID (FEIN/EIN) or SSN, and your legal business name exactly as the IRS has it (approval depends on an IRS TIN match)
- Organization type, company name, and tax address
- Primary address and primary contact (name, phone, email)
- A security question and a user ID/password you'll remember
- Commodity/service codes for what you sell (optional at sign-up, but you need them for email notices)
- Business types/certifications (optional at sign-up)

Common questions
What is a small business set-aside?
Only small businesses (under the SBA size standard for the bid's NAICS code) can compete. No certification is needed: you self-certify as small in SAM.gov. Set-asides are federal bids posted on SAM.gov.
How many small business set-aside bids are open in Colorado?
There are 4 open small business set-aside bids in Colorado right now. FindMyBids refreshes the list every morning.
How do I qualify?
Register in SAM.gov (free), then apply for the SBA certification the set-aside asks for at certify.sba.gov. Small business set-asides only need you to be small for the bid's NAICS code.
