What it's for

On July 1, 2026, Georgia moved state purchasing to GA@WORK. DOAS says: "The first step in becoming a successful supplier with the state of Georgia is registering your company in GA@WORK Marketplace for Suppliers." The portal handles supplier registration, bid notifications, responses to electronic sourcing events, contracts and Georgia Business Certification applications. It runs on Jaggaer, so the link above is a jaggaer.com address. That is the official link: DOAS's "Accessing GA@WORK Procurement Systems" page lists this exact URL for GA@WORK Marketplace for Suppliers. Open state bids are listed publicly on the Georgia Procurement Registry (GPR), which still runs at ssl.doas.state.ga.us/gpr.

Have this ready

Tax ID (FEIN/EIN, or SSN for individuals). Georgia verifies tax ID, physical address and banking information for supplier accounts.
Legal business name and physical address
Contact name, email and phone for the person who will handle bids
NIGP commodity codes for what you sell. DOAS's GA@WORK announcement says NIGP codes drive supplier filtering and notifications.
Banking information for payments (entered in the separate GA@WORK Supplier Management portal)

Steps

Download DOAS's job aid "Register as a Prospective Supplier in GA@WORK Marketplace for Suppliers" from the Job Aids for Suppliers page. The job aids are PowerPoint files and couldn't be read for this guide, so follow them for exact screens.
Go to GA@WORK Marketplace for Suppliers (link above) and register as a prospective supplier.
Enter your company, tax ID, address and contact details. Choose NIGP codes that match your business so you get bid notices.
Submit, then log in and note your GA@WORK Marketplace Supplier ID. DOAS has a job aid for finding it.
Find opportunities on the GPR and respond to sourcing events in the Marketplace (see the "Respond to Sourcing Events" job aid).

After you register

DOAS calls registration "supplier maintained," which means you are responsible for keeping your company, contact and commodity information current.
Payments, invoices and banking updates happen in the separate GA@WORK Supplier Management portal (State Accounting Office). The SAO emailed login credentials to existing suppliers' contacts. If you didn't get yours, call (770) 357-5555.
Help with registration and bidding: ProcurementHelp@doas.ga.gov or 404-657-6000.
Official pages checked don't state any renewal requirement.

Watch out for

Old Team Georgia Marketplace (TGM) accounts: No DOAS page checked says whether TGM bidder profiles carried over. DOAS gave TGM suppliers a June 5, 2026 cutoff for changing their supplier data before the switch. It also held supplier sessions aimed at "Suppliers registered in Team Georgia Marketplace" and a July 2026 webinar on "Updating an existing bidder profile." That suggests existing profiles may have moved over, but it's not confirmed. If you were in TGM, try logging in or email ProcurementHelp before you register again.
Old instructions still online: Some state pages still describe TGM.
Two separate logins: Marketplace is for bidding. Supplier Management is for payments.
Similar-looking login: DOAS also lists a separate "GA@WORK Marketplace for GDOT, USG, and Local Government" login at solutions.sciquest.com. To register as a state supplier, use the "for Suppliers" link above.
Construction and DOT are separate: GDOT road and bridge construction bids run through GDOT's own solicitation and letting process (solicitation.dot.ga.gov), and GDOT has its own contractor prequalification program. Where state building construction is posted was not confirmed.
The GPR mixes state, university and local bids. Check who the buyer is.
Paid third-party "registration services" are not required.
